Why the type is object? Isn't it Button? Why writing such object in the clipboard? What semantic should be implemented behind that? Anyway, you can implement any, even though I don't think it makes sense if this is a button or other control...

Here's a link in vb.net:

[Copy object to clipboard in vb.net]

I haven't tried it yet, but it looks like it will work.

Solution 1

You are trying to work with the object which is no a default clipboard type, like a string or an image. Nevertheless, you can work with any arbitrary data types if you define how they should be handled and register a custom data format for the clipboard.

This is explained in this CodeProject article:
Clipboard handling with .NET - Part II[^].

The article explains how to do it in .NET. As the code is written in C#, you can easily figure out how to write it in VB.NET. By the way, if you need help in .NET, it is imperative that you understand at least some of C# as most of the valuable code will be written in this language.

(Sigh...) "ok its not object" -- Gibberish. Button is object. Of course. Why did you declare a button as System.Object? Do you have any idea on what you are doing?

Now, about "but its set and get A picture or Text and I need Paste Any Windows.Forms Control On The Form". It resembles "we solved problem on adding and subtracting apples, and this is about bikes; we did not solve problems about bikes". Shame on you.

(And you never explained why pasting forms, controls, etc. I see no sense in it. Do you?)

OK, you found yest another link. Is your problem solved or not?
