Strange paste behaviour
I have a long list of items stored in Microsoft Word. The list has been numbered using the built-in Word numbering facility.
When I try to paste the list into IQ, I am asked whether I wish to create separate items, which I do. The result is strange. Items in the list which start with a number are recorded in IQ as a new item whose text contains only the number. The text which follows the number is lost, it does not appear in IQ.
Some of the text from Word contains lines which do not start with a number. These lines are correctly recorded in IQ - the text is visible.
It's easy to work round this problem: copy the text into a new Word page and remove the numbering before the copy from Word and paste to IQ.
Best regards
