Reading and Writing to Clipboard

[WSA]

I've looked through the archives, and some previous answers have part of what I want, but not all of it unfortunately.

I'ld like to copy text to clipboard AND paste it again (using code, obviously!). I guess the answer is an API: if so can anyone give an example of API-code that copies to clipboard (as well as pastes)?

And if there's an non-API method then that would be great!

Is this something that could be done by storing the value in a Variable (local or public)?

Unfortunately not - I need it to be to the clipboard. Otherwise I'ld just chuck everything, as you say, into a variable.

I've been looking at API answers on the web but many of them use the VB clipboard wrapper, and don't quote the all important copy-into-clipboard stuff that I'ld like.

(Thanks for answering, PaulF)
