[PyQt] QTableWidget Data Paste Time

[B Clowers]

Thanks for the information.  I was hoping to avoid the model-view as it is pretty daunting task especially for someone new to programming.  I don't suppose that anyone out there may be willing to share and example of how to paste data from the clipboard into a QTableView?

Cheers,

Brian

The solution for this is to use a QTableView and a QTableModel. See Qt
documentation on
http://doc.trolltech.com/4.4/model-view-introduction.html

and examples in PyQt (eg. in examples/itemviews ).
