Introduction to Openbox
About Lesson

It’s possible to create a report from scratch in Openbox. But if you already have the structure in Excel – even just a list of the line items in the report – you can take a shortcut by copying that list into Openbox and creating a report instantly.

Hello, it would be useful to update that section and point out that in the new version of Openbox (as of 11th April 2023), version 1.9.41.0 the "Paste into" button is now in the ribbon in the "Insert" section (next to New Report Item in case you're a user and looking for it)
