I’m trying to copy NSTableView data using pasteboard and want to paste it as a table in Microsoft Word. How should I do this?
I have tried copying TableView Data source as string but not able to copy the TableView itself.
NSPasteboard *pasteboard=[NSPasteboard generalPasteboard];
//_fillvalue,_levelfill(Mutable array) are the data source for my tableview with 2 column
[pasteboard clearContents];
int i=0;
NSMutableArray *tval=[[NSMutableArray alloc]init];
NSInteger row=[_tableView numberOfRows];
for(i=0;i<(int)row;i++){
NSString *s1=[_levelfill objectAtIndex:i]; //levelfill is datasource array
NSLog(@"s1 value is %@",s1);
NSString *s2=[_fillvalue objectAtIndex:i];
s1=[s1 stringByAppendingString:@" "];
s1=[s1 stringByAppendingString:s2];
[tval addObject:s1];
}
[pasteboard writeObjects:tval];
I expect the output to be copied from tableview rather than datasource of tableview. Also is there a way to copy as a table itself which can be pasted as table directly in Microsoft word.
