I must be getting old.
If, instead of pasting, I "put the clipBoardData into fld myField" I get perfect results. Again, tabs and returns in their places, data intact.

Please explain further. If I copy a range of cells in Excel, I can paste just fine into a field in LC. The tabs and returns come over as advertised.
