Partnership Bidding Table Feature
.. prev version was 1.4.8x (displayed on screen).

The new version will not allow me to paste contents of a 'dealer' script after selecting the 'Advanced' option. This GREATLY restricts the Bidding Table feature. Is this an error or oversight or is there some browser or other setting involved?
It would be really neat if a filename containing the script could be selected .. but I'd settle for cut and paste..

Cut and paste works fine for me on version 5.1.6 (HTML version) on Google Chrome on Windows 10.

I don't work for BBO and any advice is based on my BBO experience over the decades

Why not email BBO and see what they say. They installed it after all (!) Posted Image
It could be that the software is not compatible with certain devices.

It's intended to work the same in all browsers. But we do occasionally run into compatibility problems with Internet Explorer, as it doesn't follow standards as well as other browsers.

Chrome and Firefox generally work best (not just with our software, the entire web).

This worked for me:

Click in the script area.

The title of the area becomes blue and smaller. There is a cursor.

Then I can paste.
