I need an mfc api or method to copy the contents of a variable into the windows clipboard.

use namespace System.Windows.Forms

or use

SetClipboardData(
UINTuFormat,
HANDLEhMem
);

for more information http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms649051(VS.85).aspx

Clipboard.SetText(<variable value>

)

is this whatyou wanted..

Following link could help

For text in a string variable you can use "CF_TEXT". For this link given by bharathkumar will be useful


Or you can use

System.Windows.Forms.Clipboard.SetText("Hello", TextDataFormat.Text)

HGLOBAL hText;

hText = GlobalAlloc(GMEM_DDESHARE | GMEM_MOVEABLE, sizeof(str_data));
pText = GlobalLock(hText);
strcpy(pText, str_data);
GlobalUnlock(hText);

OpenClipboard(hDlg);
EmptyClipboard();
SetClipboardData(CF_TEXT, hText);
CloseClipboard();



check if this can work..

for more information check http://www.codeguru.com/forum/archive/index.php/t-290608.html

declare pTex as char * and then try

pText =(char*) GlobalLock(hText);

Clipboard.SetText(<variable value>

)

is this whatyou wanted..

Hi... i can understand the idea behind the syntax but there are still a few issues

declare pTex as char * and then try

pText =(char*) GlobalLock(hText);
