Method and system for mapping non-uniform table-structure input data to a uniform cellular data structure

摘要

A technique to make it possible to paste text display data in a text- editing program, which is arranged in table format and not formed into a geometrical format, onto a table region of a spreadsheet program as normal cell data by providing a table-format converter for processing data that is sent to a clipboard or transferred to a spreadsheet program by DDE. The table-data converter converts data to a format reflecting a table structure such as a CSV format by detecting the rule-lined data or spaces between columns of a table of the text-editing program.
