Hi..

i just want to know how can i set a button that copy from text box to the clipboard of Windows Mobile device..

and also ho to set a button to retrieve text from clipboard to a label or text box .. etc..


thanks a lot

Hi,
to set text to the clipboard
Clipboard.SetDataObject(TextBox1.Text)
to get text from the clipboard
TextBox1.Text = Clipboard.GetDataObject()

The help file really is a wonderful resource - try it, you'll like it :)

thanks.. i've tried this before but didn't work :(

thanks anyway

thanks i found out what's the problem..

the problem with (Paste from Clipboard) option

Code:

---

text1.Text = Clipboard.GetDataObject()

---

will return the data as (Object) not (Text or String)

so the code must be like this:

Code:

---

Text1.Text = Clipboard.GetDataObject.GetData(System.Windows.Forms.DataFormats.Text, True)

---

so we convert the clipboard to string or text :D
