Field	Description
Paste row(s) as children of the currently selected row	This option has three states. The default state is indeterminate. Checked: When the current insertion context is a parent row, Paste row(s) as children of the currently selected row is treated as checked. The user may clear this option, which will cause the pasted rows to be pasted at the same level as the selected row. Unchecked: When the current insertion point is not a parent row, Paste row(s) as children of the currently selected row is treated as unchecked. The user may select this option, which will cause the pasted rows to be pasted as children of the selected row and cause the selected row to become a parent row. Indeterminate: When the checkbox is in the indeterminate state, Open Plan will apply the default behavior based on the current insertion context. This allows the user to let Open Plan choose the appropriate default behavior based on the insertion context when he saves the dialog box preferences and/or choose Only show the dialog on Paste Special.
Specify a Prefix and/or Suffix for the IDs being pasted	When this option is selected, the prefix and suffix windows are enabled to allow the user to enter both a prefix and suffix value to be added to the ID values being pasted. Specify a Prefix and/or a Suffix for the IDs being pasted is unchecked by default. The maximum allowable text length for the prefix and suffix fields is the length of the appropriate ID field of the table being pasted into (59 characters by default).
How should Open Plan renumber duplicate row(s)?	You can select one of the following options: Generate new IDs based on the row(s) being pasted Generate new IDs based on where the row(s) are being pasted Generate a suffix for the row(s) being pasted Do not paste duplicate row(s)
Save the choices as the default	When this option is selected, all of the options chosen in the dialog box will be retained as a user preference and will be used to initialize the dialog box during subsequent paste operations. When the Do not show this dialog again option is chosen, the saved preferences will be applied automatically during a paste operation without showing the dialog box.
Only show the dialog when Paste Special is chosen	When this option is selected, the dialog box will not be displayed when the user performs a normal paste operation. When the user performs a normal paste and the Paste Special option is enabled, the paste operation will use the preferences specified with the Save the choices as the default option or the standard defaults if the user has not chosen the Save the choices as the default option.
