Copy and paste table data into Excel

Oops, have I another bug?

I run a model and open the data table for a specific parameter. Then I click to "Export windows content" and switch to Excel. After positioning the cursor in a specific cell I press Ctrl-V and get the Excel message:

Can't read data - OK

If I click to OK I get only the time data and the Excel message

Microsoft Office Excel can't insert the data - OK

This is probably am Excel problem but may be someone here knows the cause.

I think it is because there are more "columns" in your Vensim table than Excel can import.

The best thing to do would be to export the dataset (Model->Export Dataset), that way you can have time running down and hopefully not hit the problem.
