    Pasting into cells that require a double click for each cell?

    This might not be an excel program, but....

    There's a work program work that requires a double click to modify each cell. Talked to one of corporate's programmers who said it might have a .net base, but wasn't sure. It looks very excel like. This program requires every cell to have a double click to modify, which takes a long time to work with, especially since on average, we use the same series of numbers in each cell. Each shift must manually redo each cell. I'm wondering if anyone can think of a way around this to copy past into say 100 cells by disabling what looks like a safety feature?

    Assumptions are the reason many things go wrong. YOU don't even know what you're working with, Oracle can look like Excel and statistical tools can look like Excel, even Google Sheets looks like Excel.
    What do you want, guessing/ Assumptions, beat at the wrong bush.
    Re-read your post and think, would others understand what I am asking?
    Maybe, when you have it clear with what you're working with then somebody might be able to give you answer that you could maybe use and do something with.

    How can I help with something you don’t even know what you’re using or doing
    Imagine I phone the doctor and it hurts when I press here what is it doctor? But he can’t see mee and I don’t tell him where I am pressing .
    Sorry guessing and assumptions are not my way to analyse issues

    This is clearly not an Excel issue, so I am moving the thread to the appropriate section.

    Based on the information given I doubt anyone will be able to help. You can’t advise how to use software when you don’t even know what the software is. You need to find out at work what it is you are using - somebody must know!
