(Get the code!)
Hi Jeff,
I'm thinking mostly at someone that just wants to move a child sheet from one page to another, does it with a cut-n-paste without saving the child sheet before and looses some data without a warning from the program.
May be a warning pop-up during the "cut" when the child sheet has not been saved (or a request for an explicit save) can save from this situation.
By the way, If you put back the sheet after the "cut" using an undo, the child sheet (correctly) still has all of its data, that means that somewhere in memory there is still a copy of the data we need to perform the paste operation. Wouldn't it be possible to use that data instead of loading a possibly outdated copy from the file system? (I don't know how complex this could be, but can be an option that could potentially solve also the "first part")
P.S.: Also in the example you just reported (copy, modify the original, paste) a warning about possible data lost would be appreciated (well... as a user I would like being warned about any possible data lost)
Cheers,
Dino.
