How to reference the Clipboard

[trids]

Hi folks

Does anyone know how to reference the Clipboard from a *.VBS script? I want to write a script that will achieve what the following VB code does ..

Shell ("Explorer.exe /n, /e, " & Clipboard.GetText)

I can do the Shell-equivalent, but I'm stuck at Clipboard:

Set MyObj = CreateObject("WScript.Shell&quot
MyObj.Run "Explorer.exe /n, /e, " & Clipboard.GetText

Any ideas???

Hey - I did it!!

.. I wrapped the Clipboard object in a DLL, exposing only the GetText, Clear, and SetText methods. Now the following script works heh heh heh ...

Set oShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell&quot
Set oClip = CreateObject("ClipClass.Clipboard&quot
oShell.Run "Explorer.exe /n, /e, " & oCLip.GetText

I use it by making a shortcut to the script, to which I then assign a shortcut key. Then, while reading documentation that refers to some or other path, I can explore that path by selecting it and copying to clipboard - followed by the shortcut-key!!

Chuffed, me! ))
