Re: Next release - Paste Overlay

Brian,

Thank you a bunch for this tip. That works GREAT!

I created a filter to the network folder where I keep all of our "interface" specs. I had no idea you could do this with RSE.

Thanks again!
Greg

OK... pulled this thread out again. Does anyone know how to get this to
work with something copied from a text editor (or excel)??

I have a long list of column headers that I would like to paste into my
source code (writing column headers). These options don't seem to work
when the copied content comes from another source. Or do I have to go back
to SEU again and do a few rows at a time?

I do this all the time (text files, not Excel) by opening the source text
file with Lpex. One easy way to get there is with a local connection in
RSE view. Navigate to the text file and select open-with from the context
menu to open with Lpex. Now you can use Lpex block-select and -paste
features.
