A couple of days ago, I noticed that when I copied a cell from Excel and pasted it into a field in LiveCode (4.6 and 6.0.2), the data got padded with spaces. Not having time to debug it, I passed the data through a trim() function. Today, a script I use to parse text copied from an email into a database stack, broke. Looking in the Variables panel, I see all the variables are padded with spaces. The first thing I do in that script is put the Clipboard into a variable and convert it to an array. The keys of the array are fine. The elements are padded with 12 spaces before, none after.
Going back to the Excel spreadsheet... when I copy a cell and paste it into BBEdit, no spaces. When I paste it into a LiveCode field, it gets padded (12 spaces before and after). My normal state of low grade bewilderment and befuddlement is seriously tweaked. Anyone have an idea of what's happening? _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
