How can I cut/copy/paste text from/into textbox using clipboard from my
code?

You can use the Clipboard class. For example:

Copying
******
Clipboard.SetDa taObject(MyText box.SelectedTex t, true);

Cutting
******
Clipboard.SetDa taObject(MyText box.SelectedTex t, true);
MyTextbox.Text = string.Empty;

Pasting
******
IDataObject data = Clipboard.GetDa taObject();

if (data.GetDataPr esent(DataForma ts.Text))
MyTextBox.Text = (string) data.GetData(Da taFormats.Text) ;

I am trying to copy the text from a textbox to the clipboard. I saw some code posted earlier for Pasting from the clipboard so I modified it for copy but it is not working (see code below). When I click on the btnCopyToClipboard I can see some processing going on but the text from the textbox is not being put on the clipboard? Thoughts or suggestions? Wayne

And to ensure the contents of the clipboard are "text" contents that have been cut/copied from one of the textboxes on the form. ...
