Product Table Copy / Paste?

The Product Table does not seem to support CTRL-A, CTRL-C, CTRL-V keyboard shortcuts to copy and paste cell values. You have to manually select the text, right click copy, triple click in the new cell and right click paste.  This is painfully slow! Would love to be able to just select the cell, copy and paste with standard shortcut keys! Other ideas: click and drag to fill (40 devices in one location!), or a drop down menu of recently used locations.

Thanks!

Thanks for your post.  Unfortunately, the Grid control used in the Products View is a third party component which doesn't support keyboard shortcuts and, as a third party component, we can't add this functionality.

However, a powerful workaround is to use File | Export Equipment List which generates an Excel spreadsheet.  You can make your edits in Excel using all its capabilities (like drag/drop to fill, calculations etc) and then update your project using File | Import and choose "Equipment List" from the file type dropdown to apply the new Attribute values to the existing project.

For more, see the movie "Importing a List", #26 on the Stardraw Movies page.

I hope this is helpful.
