Read files selection from Clipboard

[Petter L]

I have been searching for how to read a fileselection from clipboard and
into the program. The code i have is currently just trying to read and put
it out in a messagebox.
The error is that the getdatapresent gives false. I got a readout in some
example code that says that it is was unicodetext but even that failed.
What i did to test is: selected three files and copy. then started the
example program but it failed on the type of format.
What type of format is a file selection? and how do i read it

Use DataFormats.FileDrop. The return value of the GetData method is an array
of strings representing the file paths.
