MS Office Forum / Outlook / Programming Add-Ins / November 2003Dmitry ... Clipboards ..
When pasting button faces anything in the clipboard before this operation will be lost. Obviously I need to save what is on the clipboard and then restore it. With all the different formats of clipboard data how do you get around this ? Thanks.  SignatureMichael Tissington http://www.tabtag.com http://www.oaklodge.com In Outlook 2000 and below, you need to use the clipboard. In Outlook 2002/2003, you can use CommandBarButton.Picture and Mask properties. I usually save text, CF_OEMTEXT, CF_HTML, CF_UNICODETEXT, CF_RTF, bitmap, metafile, and files (CF_HDROP).

The order is important: if you set Unicode text, then ANSI, obviously Unicode text will overwritten by the ANSI text.

Why would what I sent you send the data in a loop ? After all I'm just putting back on it what I took off.

I meant setting various clipboard formats in a loop - when you set the plain text data, Unicode data is overwritten. If there was gebuine Unicode data, all you will get is a plain text version. This is much like setting PR_RTF_COMPRESSED, then PR_BODY property for an RTF aware store - if you set text first, then RTF, you are fine. If you set RTF, then text, RTF will be converted to plain text.
