Need help with Copy and Paste

[holisticsam]

VB 2008

I'm trying to highlight some text in a web browser and copy and paste it into a textbox. When I run the first two commands below and manually click on the textbox and paste, the text is copied correctly.

WebBrowser1.Focus()
SendKeys.Send("^{INSERT}")

I tried the following possible commands to program that function but none of it works.

'TextBox3.Text = Clipboard.GetText()

'TextBox3.Text = Clipboard.GetDataObject.

'Dim iData As IDataObject = Clipboard.GetDataObject()
'TextBox3.Text = CType(iData, String)

'Dim iData As IDataObject = Clipboard.GetDataObject()
'TextBox3.Text = CType(iData.GetData(DataFormats.Text), String)

Your help would be appreciated. Thanks, Sam

If I want to copy something from one textbox to another I generally do something like

Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
        TextBox1.Copy()
        TextBox2.Paste()
End Sub

I'm copying and pasting from a web browser to a textbox. I tried TextBox2.Paste(), that didn't work.

If you are doing it like this:

Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
    WebBrowser1.Focus()
    SendKeys.Send("^{INSERT}")
    TextBox3.Text = Clipboard.GetText()
 
    End Sub

Then try this instead:

Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
    WebBrowser1.Focus()
    SendKeys.Send("^{INSERT}")
 
    Application.DoEvents()
 
    TextBox3.Text = Clipboard.GetText()
 
    End Sub
