CLIPBOARD

[vbAlex]

Private Sub Command1_Click()
Clipboard.Clear
Clipboard.SetText Text2.Text, vbCFRTF
End Sub

why does this not work ?????

text2 is a richtextbox
with font "verdana" and the caracters have a different size.

i want to copy the whole text (with font size, bold, etc...) to the clipboard and then i copy it to another program (like word or outlook...)

but the clipboard is always empty.....

Try Using Text2.TextRTF instead, also the VB Clipboard is a bit buggy, Try compiling a few small test projects with the clipbaord see what you can get to work, I wrote a program that altered some text in the clipboard, so I could copy

Dim intProperty1 as Integer

and it would change it to a property let/get statement for a class module.
It only worked If I copied the text to the clipboard, pasted it into a notpad, ran the program pasted to notepad again and then copied that text to the clipboard, then I could copy text into VB.
