Clipboard Object

The Clipboard object is used to manipulate text and graphics on the Clipboard. Use this object to copy, cut, and paste text in a script.

The object has the same methods as the Clipboard object available in Visual Basic:

  • Clear
  • GetData
  • GetFormat
  • GetText
  • SetData
  • SetText

For details on these methods, see http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/vb98/html/vbobjclipboard.asp?frame=true.

Example

Set cb = CreateObject("Mercury.Clipboard")
cb.Clear
cb.SetText "TEST"
MsgBox cb.GetText
