Paste Text and Values into Multiple Columns and Rows
Milestones Simplicity allows you to paste cells from a spreadsheet directly into the Milestones Simplicity column
cells, across many rows.
1. In the other application, highlight and copy the cells, as shown below.
2. In a Milestones Simplicity schedule that is prepared to accept this specifi c data (i.e. the columns match
the information in the spreadsheet), click the
tool in the toolbox.
3. Click once in the cell that will “anchor” the pasted information—pause—then click again to highlight just
that cell, as shown below. This cell is where the pasting of information will begin.
In this example, the Excel spreadsheet has 4 cells horizontally and 5 cells vertically.
These cells will paste into Milestones Simplicity using that same pattern—4 cells across and 5 rows down.
4. In Milestones Simplicity, choose Selection | Cell Text Settings | Paste.
