File copy using clipboard

Author	Message
Rob Suijkerbuij #1 / 2	File copy using clipboard Hi, I am building an Explorer like application, just for fun and for learning some more VB. Now I'm planning to make a copy function as follows: the users clicks with the rmb on a file in a listview, in a popupmenu he chooses 'Copy', and now I want to use the clipboard for copying the file to a map of the users choice, again with the rmb and 'Paste'. How do I manage this? With Clipboard.Setdata I only can copy text and bitmaps... Any help appreciated! Rob.

BD #2 / 2	File copy using clipboard I think you must write code in the copy popupmenu and point the path of the file into a string variable, when the user select paste use the file copy function to copy the file (in the string variable) to the path the user choose. Case the user select cancel set the variable to the empty string.
