ALP Paste method
Pastes from the clipboard.

Syntax and description

external.Paste();

Remarks

ALP applications may want to process the paste operation by using the corresponding standard DHTML features in IE. Thus sometimes they will want to do something special with the pasted data and sometimes they will want to just paste it somewhere. To actually paste the information you need to focus to a place where it is possible - for example text box and then call this method.

Like the copy to clipboard operations pasting from clipboard operation is by default forbidden. To make it possible for the user to paste clipboard data you need to implement routine(s) in the DHTML page that will handle some menu items or/and keyboard accelerators and will perform the required tasks.
