And here's an example of the SetClipboardViewer API :

'Create a new project, add a module to it
'Add a command button to Form1

Private Sub Form_Load()
    'KPD-Team 1999
    'URL: [url]http://www.allapi.net/[/url]
    'E-Mail: [email][email protected][/email]
    'Subclass this form
    HookForm Me
    'Register this form as a Clipboardviewer
    SetClipboardViewer Me.hwnd
End Sub
Private Sub Form_Unload(Cancel As Integer)
    'Unhook the form
    UnHookForm Me
End Sub
Private Sub Command1_Click()
    'Change the clipboard
    Clipboard.Clear
    Clipboard.SetText "Hello !"
End Sub
 
'In a module
'These routines are explained in our subclassing tutorial.
