Hi,
we want to allow users to copy&paste the contents of an local excel-sheet into the browser into the grid component. Is this possible with the grid? Is there any demo that shows this?
Mayn thanks, Regards, Sven

Hi,
You won't be able to do that directly. Web can only understand a very limited set of formats for copy and paste so it can't understand Excel format. The best/easiest way is to provide an import feature to import the data, for example, via .csv format.
Thanks!

I mean like google spreadsheets, text contents only. If i copy & paste for example contents from a excelsheet into a textarea, they just appear tab separated there. All that´s need to be done is to detect the tabs and put them directly intocells / columns.
I do not mean to copy styles, formats, etc. only text contents.. Isn´t possible?

Hi,
Yes. I believe that is technically possible but I don't think our Grid supports that now. It will be a nice feature for us to consider implementing in the future though. Sorry about that!
Thanks!
