- I have Final Data Release 3. I am tyring to Clip a portion or the
- entire contents of a Memo Window and then paste the contents to
- another application, such as the shell or a text editor.
-
- I copy selected text from a Memo Window to the ClipBoard
- using MemoCopy. I can then copy this to another Memo Window using
- Paste. So I know I am getting it to the clipboard ok.
-
- However what I want to do is get the text in the clipboard into a
- variable or something so that I can copy it to the command line or to
- some other application. I have not figured out how to this. The Final
- Copy manuals give me the impression that I cannot do this. I hope I
- am wrong.
-
- Does anyone know how to copy txt from the clipboard to a variable?
-
- TIA
