Either as Robert has indicated (using Copy/Paste shortcuts) or as I do it :
1) Select the data to be copied
2) Drag the selection onto the table of your choice in the Table list (i.e. the
list of tables that you see when you click on the Tables icon after opening
your ODB file. You do not need to have any particular table open in data entry
mode. The data import assistant will start and ask you whether you want to just
append the data, both data and field definitions, or just the field
definitions. Note that the data import wizard is far from perfect so on
occasion, and depending on the type of data and the table/field definition,
misinterpret the copied data and either fail to complete or else screw up the
insert of the data. Most of those bad behavioural bugs are already known and
reported in this bugzilla.
