Hello --

A question re: ColdFusion's ability to interact with "the outside world" (i.e., 
the non-web world):

Scenario: I have a spreadsheet (shouldn't matter which spreadsheet product, but 
if you need specifics, let's say it's
Excel) with some data in it, and I would like to build a ColdFusion-based web 
page that looks similar to the spreadsheet
(rows and columns full of input boxes).

Question: Is it possible to build this web page in such a fashion that I can 
literally copy-and-paste a range of cells
from the spreadsheet into an identically sized range of input boxes on the web 
page?  And what about vice versa (i.e.,
can I copy-and-paste a range of input boxes on the web page into an identically 
sized range of cells in the
spreadsheet)?

I can copy-and-paste a range of cells from a Windows spreadsheet to other 
Windows apps and retain the grid model of the
data because, I guess, Windows has an understanding of grid objects.  Does the 
Java that lies behind CFGRID have a
similar understanding?

Thanks for any insights you can provide.

Sincerely,
