Copying Data via the Clipboard

23.08.2021

1.Select the desired data set in the Object List or the desired area in a data set window or in data view and run the Copy command.

2.In the data set window or in data view, move the cell marker using the mouse or keyboard into a gray cell. Depending on the data structure of the edited data set, these type of cells are located under and/or next to the values that are already present. For scalar values, no new data can be entered.

3.Use the Paste command by pressing the keyboard shortcut CTRL+V. The values from the clipboard are inserted from the insertion point heading right and/or downward. Any previously existing data will be overwritten. If the structure of the data in the clipboard does not match the structure of the data set in the data set window or the insertion point, the Paste command will not be available.
