Copy Text from text box with button onclick event

Question

I like to copy the text of the Textbox when user click button1, so that it can be paste anywhere.

I searched on google for some solutions, but didn't get any positive response.

Anybody advice me to how perform this action?

Answer 1

You can use like this one:

private void btnCopy_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    Clipboard.SetText(txtClipboard.Text);
}
private void btnPaste_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    txtResult.Text = Clipboard.GetText();
}

Answer 2

You wish to copy text to the clipboard. The basic syntax is:

Clipboard.SetText("The text you want to copy");

But in order for it to work there is more work to put into it, use the links I provided. You can find further information here and here for c# and here for ASP.net which is more relevant for you.

This code was taken from CodeProject link aformentioned, and should work by using different thread.

private static string _Val;
public static string Val
{
    get { return _Val; }
    set { _Val = value; }
}
protected void LinkButton1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{            
    Val = label.Text;
    Thread staThread = new Thread(new ThreadStart (myMethod));
    staThread.ApartmentState = ApartmentState.STA;
    staThread.Start();
}
public static void myMethod()
{
    Clipboard.SetText(Val);
}

Answer 3

Clipboard.SetText(textBox1.Text.ToString()); Everyone forgot to tell you about .ToString() method. That works 100%
