I'll Take A Copy

What with all the GUI and IDEs out there, I suspect it is rather common knowledge for someone to know how to cut, copy, and paste text to and from the clipboard, or as you might be more familiar with text editors like Notepad, via CTRL-C, CTRL-X, and CTRL-V.

And also the ability to CLEAR the clipboard.

Could someone please post an example of these functions ? I have need for this in my current Carryall project.

Thanks !

There's a bunch of examples in the Code Archives, e.g.:

http://www.blitzbasic.com/codearcs/codearcs.php?code=699
http://www.blitzbasic.com/codearcs/codearcs.php?code=2148

Took about three seconds to find, I'm sure there's others...

(The search functionality of the forum is a bit rusty, I find it easier to just go to Google.com and search for something like this: site:blitzbasic.com clipboard "code archives"

The first example is from Blitz Basic. Not very useful there as most commands are different. Second example is for BlitzMAX. Ok, I'll look through this. Thanks, Xlsior !
