How to copy the contents of a Multiline textbox to the clipboard in C#?

Question

I have some text coming from database in a Multiline textbox, how can I copy that to the clipboard so that the user can paste it into another window or file (e.g. from my application to another textbox)? OR to notepad/word file if possible.

Answer 1

Clipboard.Clear();    //Clear if any old value is there in Clipboard        
Clipboard.SetText("abc"); //Copy text to Clipboard
string strClip = Clipboard.GetText(); //Get text from Clipboard
