[Bug 10199] New: Office Excel Clipboard Translation

[dunbarx at aol.com]

I must be getting old.


If, instead of pasting, I "put the clipBoardData into fld myField"


I get perfect results. Again, tabs and returns in their places, data intact.

Bob.


Please explain further.


If I copy a range of cells in Excel, I can paste just fine into a field in LC. 
The tabs and returns come over as advertised.
