 Private Sub button1_Click(sender As Object, e As System.EventArgs)
' Takes the selected text from a text box and puts it on the clipboard.
If textBox1.SelectedText <> "" Then
Clipboard.SetDataObject(textBox1.SelectedText)
Else
textBox2.Text = "No text selected in textBox1"
End If
End Sub 'button1_Click
Private Sub button2_Click(sender As Object, e As System.EventArgs)
' Declares an IDataObject to hold the data returned from the clipboard.
' Retrieves the data from the clipboard.
Dim iData As IDataObject = Clipboard.GetDataObject()
' Determines whether the data is in a format you can use.
If iData.GetDataPresent(DataFormats.Text) Then
' Yes it is, so display it in a text box.
textBox2.Text = CType(iData.GetData(DataFormats.Text), String)
