Copy and paste to a PfW schedule...
- Nov 13, 2023
Hey James_Price ,
I don't see this issue. If the Name cell has the green outline so it just selected (no cursor flashing inside it for typing), copying and pasting multiple task names from multiple rows in Excel works fine. If I click in the Name cell to make it active to type with the cursor flashing, the values from multiple rows will just create 1 new task.

Sorry for the delay on this but I thought I'd replied last week... d'oh. So what I've been doing:
1. I copy a range from Excel (A1:A3 with values a, b and c).
2. In the Project Task tab, I select Grid and click on the 'Add new task'. This changes to a green outlined cell with 'Name' inside it.
3. When I paste, a black on white text pop up says 'The paste option is not supported'.
4. If I click again in the cell, I get the cursor key and this only pastes 'a b c' in the cell.
Hope this helps
Many thanks

FYI it appears that you can't copy and paste into the Grid view via PowerApps. Is that your understanding/experience?
Many thanks

Thanks for the update James_Price ,
That makes sense why I couldn't repro the issue you were seeing, I was not using the Power App UI. It's a shame copy and paste doesn't work in the Power App UI.
