Clipboard

[ic2]

Hello Karl,

Hmm, I thought I posted a reply...

Here it is again:

Glad I could help. It makes me wonder however why it works for me (and Chris I think) apparently without this statement?

Hi Dick,

I do have it in my Start() function, actually this attribute is needed for dozens of different things to work, so I already had it.

We needed this attribute also for some situations that I do not remember anymore. We have it also at the beginning of the start function of the main programs.

[STAThread] ;
function Start as void

Here is a good explanation about this attribute, and the fact that it is needed for Clipboard support.

Hi Fabrice,
thx for the link. If i understand this correctly, the attribute has to be set, no way out of this. Couldn't the compiler throw a warning, if one instantiates a clipboard without having the attribute?
