How do i copy a string to the clipboard?

Anyone?

This will copy the string "vlatko" to the clipboard:

Code:

---

#include <windows.h>

int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
        LPTSTR lptstrCopy;
        OpenClipboard(NULL);
        EmptyClipboard();
        HGLOBAL txt = GlobalAlloc(GMEM_DDESHARE,(strlen("vlatko") +1 ) * sizeof(TCHAR));
        lptstrCopy = (char*)GlobalLock(txt);
        memcpy(lptstrCopy,"vlatko",(strlen("vlatko")) * sizeof(TCHAR));
        lptstrCopy[strlen("vlatko")] = (TCHAR) 0;
        GlobalUnlock(txt);
        SetClipboardData(CF_TEXT,txt);
        CloseClipboard();
        return 0;
}

What is argc?

It is an argument of the main function. It doesn't do nothing in this case. argc contains the nuber of parameters passed to the program.
