So, after discussing this with the customer, and seeing what they're doing with their Access import (which they use regularly), It turns out that they add new product sets by keying/pasting them into a temporary table in Access, then they run some scripts to update another table, and then they run the Jiwa import tool to load the data from their 'jiwa_data_load' table.
All a lot of work.
So I figured that it might be better if I implemented a plugin that allows them to just paste data into a grid for importing.
I've got some old code that allows for loading and editing an Excel spreadsheet into a JiwaGrid for pricing updates, so I've tried adapting that to provide a blank template into which data can be either typed or pasted. I've got it working up to the point where I have a header row, and a data entry row. But it doesn't add new rows, and if I delete the one I have, then I have no new ones.
Is there a trick to enabling this?
