pgAdmin III v1.8.0 - Ctl-V in Edit window
Windows XP SP2
pgAdmin dated 19 Oct 2007
various 8.x.x versions of PostgreSQL
-------
The overloading of Ctl-V in the Edit
window has been causing problems for me. Normally I use it while
editing a field to paste a value. However, if the field is not open
for editing (hasn't been clicked on twice), Ctl-V brings up a 'Paste Data'
dialog asking about using the clipboard data for the record's serial columns.
This wouldn't necessarliy be a problem, but...
Sometimes when I click No, it will leave
the cursor just sitting on the 'new record' entry line (the one with the
'*'). No problem. Other times it will leave the cursor in
the serial column, _in edit mode_, and brings up a message box with the
text:
-----------
An error has occured:
ERROR: Invalid input syntax for integer:
"
"
------------
This seems to occur when the text in
the copy buffer contained multiple lines (pasting a small Perl script into
a text field).
At this point, none of the fields appears
to have text in it, but trying to move off the (apparently) blank row brings
up again the same message, and does not allow moving off the row. There
seems to be no way to proceed other than closing the window, which DOES
bring up the "Unsaved Row" dialog box. Attempting to delete
the new row with DEL or the popup menu removes the error condition, but
leaves the cursor stuck on that row.
I think a Cancel option on the 'Paste
Data' dialog would be nice. Or maybe a way to abandon the (apparently)
partially entered row.
