how to copy string to clipboard in pocket pc?

[Art]

MSDN Doc. tells me to use this command :
textBox1.Copy()

But it doesn't work.
I'm not sure whether it is the command for pc or for ppc.

Any idea on it.
Thank you so much

peter answered to that :

The Clipboard object is not included in the Compact Framework. However the
free OpenNETCF WinAPI library contains read-made methods to set and get text
from the clipboard using P/Invoke to the Windows APIs.

1. Install the the OpenNetCF Smart Device Framework v1.0 here:

http://www.opennetcf.org/PermaLink.aspx?guid=3a013afd-791e-45ef-802a-4c1dbe1cfef9

2. In your .Net CF project in visual studios add a reference to the
"OpenNETCF.Windows.Forms" library

3. "Imports OpenNETCF.Windows.Forms"

4. Add this code:

Dim iData As IDataObject = Clipboard.GetDataObject()

Dim strTestClipBoard As String

'to set clipboard use the below code:

iData.SetData(DataFormats.Text.Trim, TextBox1.SelectedText) 'or whatever the
source is if you're setting the clipboard

'to GET clipboard use the below code:

strTestClipBoard = CType(iData.GetData(DataFormats.Text), String)
