The Excel workflow is surprising from the viewpoint of consistency with the OS but works pretty well for Excel users. Cut, paste multiple times, enter for the last one. I notice the multiple paste doesn't work on Excel on the Web.


The clipboard is very weak in Excel. If I copy something, update a cell somewhere and then paste elsewhere, the clipboard vanishes and I need to copy all over again.


But excel cells are not simply text: it is a different format, I don't have specific existing behavior for that.

It is very different with plaintext
