Hi There,

I was exploring an option if its possible to copy from excel (certain rows and columns) and paste it on the ASP .Net grid from the above link. I was thinking, if we are able to find the clicked 'cell' on the grid then we should be able to loop from the copied data (by splitting it into rows and tabs, and populate the ASP grid with the selected cell as the starting cell. I have given an example of another grid where we are able to paste the data to populate an entire grid. We want to fine tune this functionality to suit our needs,

Question: Is it possible to achieve the above using the essential objects grid?

Hi,

EO.Web Grid does not provide any direct support for that. What you can do is to:

1. Place a "Paste into Grid" button in your page;
2. When user clicks that button, display a dialog with a textbox prompting user to paste into the textbox;
3. Use JavaScript to parse the text user entered, then use the Grid's client side API to add data into the Grid.

You can find more information about how to use our client side API here:

Thanks!
