Clipboard Automation Server for C/SIDE Applications

Clipboard Automation Server for C/SIDE Applications
Unsatisfied with the fact that it was not possible to place text on the clipboard from C/AL code, I came up with the following Automation server.
Extending the requirements just a little, pasting text from the clipboard is also included.

Great Stuff, Jan!!! :P

Thanks for posting the code for the clipboard as well.
I actually want to include other formats of the clipboard in there as well (not just text, but binary as well).

Michael has posted a clipboard tool in 2002.

I like the fact that you do not need an installer to use your clipboard, (Michaels Clipboard required you to run the installer).
I will start using your improved clipboard today, as it has more functions available than Michael's (i.e. Append functionality).

A shout-out to Michael as well, since I have used his clipboard utility for the last couple of years, and have made my life a lot easier.

One application for the clipboard that I use often as well:
Using it during debugging, in case I don't feel like using the debugger and I hate using message boxes. So instead of showing data in a message box, I send it to the clipboard, and paste to a word processor once the code has finished running.

Well done, and thank you very much.
