| Warnings |
Some complications can arise when pasting data into Pick applications. See the "picknat" command for its warnings.
Doing a "cut" operation overlays the data from the last "cut" with the new data. If any conversions exist in the attribute definition where Cut and Paste is desired, a "cu" (character update) processing code must be included in the input-conversion of this attribute definition. |
