Summary of several ways to access the clipboard in VBS

Copy the codeThe code is as follows:

 
Set IE = CreateObject("") 
("about:blank") 
Set clipboard =  
'SetData sets the contents of the clipboard
"text", "Forgot, I like the feeling of being alone"
'GetData gets the contents of the clipboard
 ("text") 
 

Practice has proved that searching a lot of code online is generally not good code. The SetData method is actually related to the settings of the IE browser.

The default setting of IE8 is Prompt, so a dialog box will pop up when running the above script. If this is Disable, then this script cannot set the clipboard content (the acquisition will not be affected).

It is better to use less code without guarantees. It can be used to set the contents of the clipboard under Windows 7. If you obtain it, just use IE.

Dim WshShell
set WshShell = CreateObject("")
str = "Forgot, I like the feeling of being alone"
 " /c echo " & str & " | clip",0,False

You can also set and get clipboard contents

'Set the contents of the clipboard
Dim Word
Set Word = CreateObject("")

 = "Forgot, I like the feeling of being alone"

 False

'Get the contents of the clipboard
Dim Word
Set Word = CreateObject("")

(wdFormatPlainText)

str = 
 False
 str

The most amazing thing is to use Microsoft Forms 2.0 Object Library.

'Set the contents of the clipboard
Dim Form, TextBox
Set Form = CreateObject(".1")
Set TextBox = Form.(".1").Object
 = True
 = "Forgot, I like the feeling of being alone"
 = 0
 =

'Get the contents of the clipboard
Dim Form, TextBox
Set Form = CreateObject(".1")
Set TextBox = Form.(".1").Object
 = True
If  Then
 
  
End If
