View 2 Repliesim using Visual Basic 6 to automate a large amount of excel and word content into a single word document and am having to use selection.copy and selection.paste on a regular basis. this continually adds items into the office clipboard and fills it up rather rapidly making a huge drain on resources until word eventually gives up and crashes.i have a couple of things that i would like to do to that i think would prevent this from happening....
1-clear the task pane clipboard
2-switch the task pane clipboard off before my code starts automation
i've tried a couple of options to clear the clipboard but they only seem to clear the system clipboard and not the task pane one (containing its 24 resource hungry and useless items)[code]i can manually choose 'Stop Collecting' from the system tray icon menu, which appears to do what is says but i need to automate this function in someway.i find it hard to believe that microsoft would introduce a feature without giving even the most basic of access to programmers.
Is there a cleaner way of dealing with clearing the clipboard than just 'clearing' it [clipboard.clear()]. I want to prevent file copying while these files are unencrypted, but if you clear the clipboard between rightclick-copy and rightclick-paste, it crashesexplorer.Is there a way to root out specific files (by name or type) from the clipboard or deal with the crash from WinExplorer?

I am unable to read a pasted datagridviewrow object from the clipboard. All I want to do is, when a user has the entire row selected and copied, I would paste that row into the clipboard as a DataObject. That works just fine but when I attempt to read that DataObject (after the user clicks Paste) the DataGridViewRow that's saved in the clipboard always has a value of Nothing. Here's the code I'm using for Copy and Paste.

wan to ask about anyone know the code about how to clear all the data inside the data grid view without clear the binding source...
View 1 RepliesIn my winform program (in vb.net) I wrote:
Dim dt As New DataTable
'Get data from DB into dt
'...
[Code].....
But when I run the program, Clear() cleared both dt and dttemp! Why? Aren't dt and dttemp supposed to be two distinct instances of DataTable?
(I finally found a solution - dttemp = dt.Copy() instead of dttemp = dt. But I still can't see why Copy() was necessary in this case.
I am using the StreamWriter to create a log file for my application. However I do not see a method on how to clear the file (make the file blank again). Also before I clear the file I want to rename it so that I can have multiple log files, a new one produced everytime the application runs.

View 3 Repliesalthough this topic has been posted for many times, I still can't figure out how to copy multi formats in clipboard.For example, I have a class called "Meta" and it contains data of a drawing. So if someone copy it to the clipboard, it should contains the original data of the class in a custom format called "drawing", a metafile of the drawing and a bitmap in case some app can't read metafiles. How exactly can I do?

View 1 RepliesThis is kind of a two part question. I'm trying to make a very simple automated program that will run two stored procedures (one that updates, one that displays the new results) and then copies the results to the clipboard and pastes it in a new e-mail. I already have the e-mail generating and grabbing whatever is on the clipboard, but I need help with the store procedures.
Every guide I look at on Google seems to show a slightly different way of working with SQL, but I threw this together and need to know if it's working.

How do I get the file itself onto the clipboard when I only have the path to it?

If I failed to copy clipboard I would wait 10 seconds and try again. Then it keeps failing.
However, if I try to debug the program or do any human stuff it gets fixed by it self. But I don't want human intervention.
