Hi There, We are copying / pasting data into a field and there is some code / script appearing above what we have pasted. Does anyone know how  / why this has occurred? And how we fix it?

Cheers,

Could you provide a screenshot of the error and your table?

Hi! Not sure if it's the same script appearing for OP, but I'm experiencing the same issue. This is what I'm getting when pasting in from gSheets:

 

And it's even worse when pasting the same values from Word:

Any insight would be helpful, thanks!

I'm seeing the same error. It happens when copy/pasting into Long Text fields (other field types don't seem to be affected). I checked in Safari and the block of code doesn't show up when using that browser, but it instead strips out an intended line break and bumps my cursor to the end of the field instead of leaving it at the end of the pasted material.

Still hoping for a solution from AT, but in the meantime, I've found that if you copy-paste the content into one of the text fields on text-compare.com and then copy-paste it over from there into a base, the block of code doesn't appear!
