Functions like Cut, copy and paste..How?

[JpEgy]

How can i use function like that in a prog that uses many many textboxes? do i have to programm them for each textbox indevidually? thnx

You dont have to, if you have text boxes on a form, you'll automatically get the context menu with cut, paste, copy etc. when you right click.

but i want them in the menu, just like any other prog...

The right-click Context menu is automaticly added, but if you mean just the functions to copy & paste? Then you should use the Clipboard object...
I wrote two small functions for you to show how it works:

Private Function GetClipBoardText() As String
        If Clipboard.GetDataObject.GetDataPresent("Text") Then
            Return Clipboard.GetDataObject.GetData("Text")
        End If
    End Function
 
    Private Sub SetClipBoardText(ByVal sString As String)
        Clipboard.SetDataObject(sString)
    End Sub

hmmm since i have lots of textboxes in my app is there someway i can make a sub to all of them? like the copy function...can i make it for for all textboxes at once?

[Jop]

I don't really see what you mean...
you mean like if you click the paste button that it will paste in all textboxes or what?
