Thread: SetClipBoardData()

Assuming you are interested in text......run this and then paste into any program (MSWord, notepad.....etc)....

Code:

#include <windows.h>
#include <string.h>

int WINAPI WinMain(HINSTANCE hThisInstance,
				   HINSTANCE hPrevInstance, 
				   LPSTR lpszArgument, 
				   int nFunsterStil)
{

	HANDLE hData;//For the data to send to the clipboard
	char szData[] = "Hello World (from the clipboard!!)",//phrase
		 *ptrData = NULL;//pointer to allow char copying
	int nStrLen = strlen(szData);//length of phrase

	hData = GlobalAlloc(GMEM_MOVEABLE | GMEM_DDESHARE,
		nStrLen + 1);//get handle to memory to hold phrase
	
	ptrData = (char*)GlobalLock(hData);//get pointer from handle

	memcpy(ptrData,szData,nStrLen + 1);//copy over the phrase

	GlobalUnlock(hData);//free the handle

	OpenClipboard(NULL);//allow you to work with clipboard

	EmptyClipboard();//clear previous contents

	SetClipboardData(CF_TEXT,hData);//set our data

	CloseClipboard();//finished!!
	
  
   return 0;
}

Oh........and there is no need to "love me forever"......
