I have added a UD table as a child to another table using the Customization wizard. When I try to Paste Insert into that grid, Epicor chokes and eventually crashes. What do I need to do to make Paste Insert work? I’m wondering if the 3 Read Only fields on the screen are causing this. ---

I had a similar paste insert issue. Please see this post and see if this is your issue. > [@Paste Insert or Paste Update with UD Table](https://www.epiusers.help/t/paste-insert-or-paste-update-with-ud-table/61448/16): > > So I now have paste insert and paste update working on my UD Child table. It turns out that the format and mask ID are important for paste function to work. I had an integer column and I did not want to see .000000 after each integer. To get rid of the zeros after the decimal, I input the wrong text on the format of that Column Properties (I did not use the # that is now in my attached image). My incorrect format made the number in the column appear as I wanted (a whole number with no decima… ---

Yeah, I looked at that one before I made this thread and tried to figure out if that would solve my issue and it didn’t. I changed all the ‘integer’ fields to have the . after the mask and format, and it still died. (locks up for a while, then finally sends some info to Microsoft and prompts to debug or close it). ---

Are you able to manually tab off the last cell of the first row, manually enter data for the second row and tab to the third row without errors? I had an issue like this (that also prevented me from paste/insert on my UD table. This was the solution I used for that issue. > [@New row of UD table](https://www.epiusers.help/t/new-row-of-ud-table/61186/11): > > I used the Event Wizard to select: Control Type Filter: EpiUltraGrid Custom Control: epiUltraGridC1 Check the Data Entry Grid box Available GetNew Method: GetNewUD01View Then I updated All Event Codes. Now when a user tabs off the final cell of the last row, a new row is created with the required Key fields pre-populated. ---

I’ll have to try this one, because I can’t do tab off without errors. I’ll let you know if it works 🙂 ---

I am glad this worked for you. I am working on my first implementation and we have not gone live yet. I do not have an IT background either, so I am happy that I have been able to help this community that has been a wonderful resource for me.
