Hmm, I'm seeing some odd behaviour...
- A copy/paste of a single row seems to work in most cases, but:
- Sometimes, nothing got pasted into the new row
- Sometimes, the entire row got pasted into the end of an existing
cell (which had been selected, prior to selecting the '*' row.
I couldn't find a pattern to reproduce these, but they did occur a
number of times during a few minutes of heavy copy/pasting.
- Multi-row pasting doesn't work, but I guess you know that!
Regards, Dave.
