Greetings,
Which Windows? Which Rev?
Win XPpro, Rev 1.1.1, Excel 2000 9.0
I created a field and populated it with a few lines made up of strings separated
by tabs. While in Browse mode, I placed the cursor into the field. Then I
pressed ctrl+a to select the entire field contents, then preseeded ctrl+c to
copy the selection to the clipboard. Next I switched to Excel, selected a cell,
and pressed ctrl+v to copy the clipboard. As expected, the contents were pasted
as tab delimted data. That is, each tab resulted in the following string to be
placed into the next column. When the end of a line was reached, the next string
started on the following line.
Does that help you sort out your problem?
Dan, I've narrowed it down to what seems like a bug.
Now it appears that it's not a Mac/Windows difference, it's a standalone vs. IDE difference. The problem is that in the standalone, Command-C or Control-C deselects the text and nothing goes onto the clipboard.
Rev 2.0.1, Windows 2000 and OS X 10.2.6
- Create a field (focusable, visible, don't wrap, lock text, auto-hilight text, fixed line height)
- Put some tabstops and tab delimited text into the fld
(Now you can select text and copy it, pasting the tab delimited data into excel)
- Build a standalone of the same stack
(Now you can select text but the copy fails and you cannot copy-paste the tab delimited data into excel)
