Copying/Pasting Excel Content

[DesignStationYT]

I've noted a strange behaviour when trying to update a table with new content copy/pasted from Excel. For example, if I select the content I wish to copy in Excel...

...and then paste that into the cells I wish to update/replace in Publisher...

There often seems to be one cell of blank content that carries over and replaces the first column of the next row. So in this case, that removes the content that was in row 13 (which is a single cell with all columns merged).

Hi @DesignStationYT,

Thanks for reporting this.

I've replicated the issue here and have logged this with the Dev team

@stokerg For what it is worth, here on Mac with Numbers.app I get a blank row of cells then a row with the data and the next row of cells will be overwritten with empty cells. 

Or... I get even weirder stuff happening.

Unfortunately this issue isn't solved in the new update. 

If you have to paste a lot of Excel sheets on a daily base this behaviour is very annoying. Luckily for me it is only an empty added row that can be deleted but nonetheless it's extra work that wasn't necessary in version 1.
