Copy

Copy copies the selected information in a model to the clipboard. Figure 3-13 indicates what can be copied from a model.

The Windows version of the software supports Copy as a Dynamic Data Exchange (DDE) compliant command for linking data from Tables to other DDE compliant applications. Data links can be copied from selected variables in tables ONLY. For further detail regarding DDE, see Chapter 8.

Helpful Hint: Depressing the alt key (Windows) or option key (Macintosh) while copying a Table column (or row in Horizontal orientation) will cause the variable name to be copied with the data. Similarly, for a specific time slice containing data for all variables in a Table Pad page, the time will be copied if the alt key (Windows) or option key (Macintosh) is depressed when you choose copy. If you do not depress the alt key (Windows) or option key (Macintosh) while copying, the variable name (or time information) will not be copied with the data.
