ABSTRACT:
A system and method is disclosed for persistently copying and pasting a source range of cells of a multidimensional spreadsheet onto one or more destination ranges of cells. When the source cells are first copied and pasted, a persistent association is made between the source cells and the destination cells. Thereafter, whenever a cell in the source range is updated, the corresponding cells in the destination range are updated automatically.
