So: I set up a stack containing a table field "ACCESS" and created a

1. I opened the spreadsheet in LibreOffice Calc, selected the
populated fields
and then hit a button on my stack that contains the following script:
on mouseUp
set the text of fld "ACCESS" to the clipboardData
end mouseUp
and NOTHING happened.
2. I opened the same spreadsheet in Gnumeric, selected the populated
fields
and then hit the button on my stack:
and the cells of the table field populated "properly".
Now, at the risk of seeming incredibly stupid (!!!!) I wonder why data
copied from a Gnumeric file works, while data copied from a
LibreOffice Calc
does not???
Of course, were I a real 'trooper' I'd install every possible
spreadsheet software
on my Linux box and do the same sort of thing . . . .

Further to this: I found I can copy-paste interchangeably:
I can select and copy in a LibreOffice Calc file and post everything
successfully into a Gnumeric spreadsheet,
and the other way round.
So what is LiveCode objecting to with data from LibreOffice?
