Adding data manually?

Can data be manually added to a time series without doing an import?  For snow surveys, for instance, NBMCA only has 3 sites, so if we want to keep the database up to date the fastest way could be to just type in the values every 2 weeks...

Hey Joel,

Just played around with it and figured it out.

So here's the deal:

1. Right click on the TS and apply time range
2. Go to the time definition window (upper right - marked in a red box in the images below) - make SURE you change the time frame to be far into the future. It has to at least account for the range you're working with. For mine, I changed it to many years in the future to be safe (Image #1). 
3. Right click on the TS and select "Table" (Image #2)
4. Select the first empty cell underneath the last value and then right click and paste - all your info should appear. The format I used is in Image # 3.
5. Save your edits.
