Created attachment 88068 [details] Database for trying to copy and paste with table-menu and with drag and drop Open a database. Open a table with "AutoValue"-primarykey. Mark a row with the mouse → right button → copy. Go to the row for new records. Try the menu Insert → Record. No reaction of the GUI. You could try the same with two tables. Both must have the same fields. Primary-Key mustn't be AutoValue, when the copied value isn't in the second table. But this doesn't work, too. Seems there is no function behind Insert → Record. Didn't work in any LO-Version. Have tested it with 3.3.0 beta 1. But this functionality is implemented: Mark the header of a row you will copy. Press the left mouse-button and draw it out of the row. The sign appears, that the row will be copied. Works with tables with AutoValue. Works from one table to another, if the primarykey isn't in the second table. Throws an error, when it couldn't be inserted. You could also copy many rows the same time - but not by the menu Insert → Record.
Have tried a little bit more. The menue in the table Insert → Record let the cursor jump to "New Row". That is all behind this menue. So it seems that there is no possibility planned to insert a new record with the content of a copied row in the GUI.

Indeed, this is the code called: 1879 case ID_BROWSER_INSERT_ROW: 1880 try 1881 { 1882 if (SaveModified()) 1883 { 1884 getRowSet()->afterLast(); 1885 // check if it is available 1886 Reference< XResultSetUpdate > xUpdateCursor(getRowSet(), UNO_QUERY_THROW); 1887 xUpdateCursor->moveToInsertRow(); 1888 } 1889 } 1890 catch(Exception&) 1891 { 1892 SAL_WARN("dbaccess.ui", "Exception caught!"); 1893 } 1894 break; http://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/dbaccess/source/ui/browser/brwctrlr.cxx#1879 So, "Insert Row" just moves the cursor to last line for inserting a new row
Insert Record indeed is *not* a paste, but is a "give me an empty record that I can type inside to insert new values". However, if you select 1 (or even several) rows and then drag'n drop them to the same table (or a different table with the same structure), then it works, a copy is inserted as new rows. Works with AutoValue primary key. If the Primary Key column is not an AutoValue, it tries to insert, it gives an error because giving the same value to the primary key is forbidden, *but* the row is there (at the bottom) prefilled and ready to be inserted if one manually gives an OK value to the primary key (and any other UNIQUE column). Copy/Paste of rows indeed does not work. That's rather unfortunate, since basically the feature is there, and accessible by drag'n drop; one just would have to do "the same thing" in the case of a copy-paste.

Bug still exists in LO 7.3.4.2 on OpenSUSE 15.3 64bit rpm Linux.
Behavior changed a little bit. If I set cursor in a row, which already exists, and set Insert → Record, it seems to insert the content of the copied record and show the new content instead of the old. This will show two rows with the same primary key. Very irritating. Reloading the table will show the old entries and not the wrong insert. Bug still exists for LO 24.2.4.2 on OpenSUSE 15.6 64bit rpm Linux.
