Re: how to format text for copy-pasting as a spreadsheet table

The best place to start is by analysing the clipBoard data, in this case, copy a small table from Pages and then look at the fullClipBoardData[“html”] in LiveCode to see how the table is represented as html. You can then use this as a model to build a table in html and place it on the

New Wierd Display Bug

Hi all. I have 3 datagrids on a card, one for vendors, one for purchase order master records, and a third for po detail records. That's not important now. What IS important is that when I attempted to do some work on the card, I noticed the header labels for the vendors datagrid were not

Hmm. There is a potential issue that would need to be worked around. The field name is the same whether one has a single table field or 12. Perhaps watching focus changes? I'm back to thinking there is a property that tracks which field to update on close of the editing overlay. For a single
