Provide full support for pasting table from Notes Client to MS Excel.

Currently when user pastes a table in MS Excel, which was copied from a mail document in Notes client, it may not get pasted properly. Table may appear distorted/broken/table changes to text format.

Result of two tests using Notes client & Outlook client.
A] Using Notes Client: Copy the table from mail document and "Paste Special" in MS Excel, it provide only two options as "Unicode Text" & "Text".

B] Using Outlook Client: Copy the table from mail document and "Paste Special" in MS Excel, it provides 5 options, "Microsoft Word Document Object", "Picture (Enhanced Metafile)", "HTML", "Unicode Text" & "Text".

The table appears properly in case of Outlook Client but broken in case of Notes Client. Hence there is an enhancement request to provide full support for pasting table from notes client to MS Excel.




This Enhancement Request was submitted for Notes Client V11.

    In Notes 9.0.1FP4 and later, when the Notes view is copied as table format, it is copied in HTML format.

    This behavior can be restored to the pre-Notes 9.0.1FP4 behavior by disabling HTML formatting in the notes.ini parameter CopyAsTableHTMLSetting. (https://help.hcltechsw.com/caa/3.0.1/topics/appacc_ini_settings_r.html)

    When copying a table in a Notes document, it is not copied in HTML format; please allow it to be copied in HTML format as well as in the Notes view.
