EditPaste Method

       

Pastes a Windows metafile graphic or tab-delimited text from the clipboard into the current selection on a chart.

Syntax

object.EditPaste

The object placeholder represents an object expression that evaluates to an object in the Applies To list.

Remarks

The chart can accept several types of information from the clipboard, depending on the currently selected chart element when EditPaste is called. If the entire chart is selected, the chart looks for data on the clipboard and attempts to use this new data to redraw the chart. If an item that can accept a picture, such as a bar or chart backdrop is selected, the chart looks for a metafile on the clipboard. If it finds a metafile, it uses that metafile to fill the selected object.
