How to mark TEXT in textfield by Commandbutton 1

[TedMcCoin]

Hi,

I am looking for a piece of code to mark a complete texfield like CTRL-V and then Copy into clipboard like CTRL-C by means of a commandbutton.

I am using VFP 6.0

Its a simple idea, but I have no clue how to establish that, any ideas are appreciated.

thanks, Erik

Are you looking for something like this? These would go in COPY, and Paste buttons.

* copy to clipboard
_cliptext = THISFORM.text1.Value

* updates the 2nd Value with clipboard contents
THISFORM.text2.Value = _CLIPTEXT

Jim thank you for your fast reply,

that works fine, just I wanted also the field visible marked as you see it with CTRL-A.

Any ideas ?

Thanks, Erik

Maybe this?


thisform.text1.SelectOnEntry = .T.
thisform.text1.SetFocus
_cliptext = THISFORM.text1.Value
