CLIPBOARD OBJECT

[Niamh02]

Im creating a program not unlike windows explorer. I want to be able to cut, copy and paste files from one location to another. At the moment Im using a temporary folder to store the files after they have been cut or copied and its working, but I have to code it using the clipboard object.Can anyone help me with this as most of the data Ive found seems to be about storing text, not files on the clipboard!
Any help would be appreciated

um, you would only need to just put the file name into the clipboard....and then use the Name/Kill methods, or FSO, to move/delete/copy the files. [/b][/i][/u]*******************************************************[sub]

This may not be what you are looking for, but why don't you use the MS Internet Control? Since it is based on IE/Explorer you get some of the functionality of explorer, for example, use:

Me.WebBrowser1.Navigate "C:\"
