I am running 1.16.1 (Windows 7). I can reproduce this. It makes a difference, though, if you use ctrl-c vs the right-click/Copy. ctrl-c does the whole entry, right-click/Copy gets just what is highlighted. ctrl-c gets the whole entry even if nothing is highlighted.

Hi

Sorry if this has been raised before, but it's been a nuisance to me for
quite a while and I thought I should mention it.

To reproduce the problem :-

1. Open the Edit Data window on a table
2. Click into a text field containing some text and highlight a single word
3. Paste what you have just copied.

You will get the whole contents of the field not what you just highlighted.

My environment is
Windows Vista
pgAdmin 1.16.1


I believe the attached patch fixes this. With it, if you're in Edit Mode in a cell, then Copy works more like it would in a regular text box - only the highlighted text is copied, and there are no quotes etc. added. In View Mode, whatever cells are selected will be copied, and quoting/delimiting applied.

Can someone review it please (Dhiraj :-p )?

Thanks.
