Thank you Razzak.
I'm able to run the PasteTextFromClipBoard external form and text gets
pasted into the Variable Memo control (variable = vPasteText) when I
click the Paste button.
But when I sho var, the variable vPasteText is null.
Shouldn't it contain the pasted text?
If I do a Ctrl-V and manually paste text into the Variable Memo control,
the text gets pasted and the variable vPasteText contains the pasted text.
That's what I'm trying to accomplish.
Am I misunderstanding the PasteFromClipBoard property?
Thanks much for your help.

I give up, how does it work?
I've got a Variable Memo control for the variable vPasteText,
component ID
cidPasteText. On a DoubleClick EEP for the Variable Memo, I have:
PROPERTY cidPasteText PASTEFROMCLIPBOARD TRUE
As I TRACE, the text gets pasted into the Variable Memo control, but the
variable vPasteText remains null.
RECALC VARIABLES doesn't work and I've tried TRUE and 'TRUE'.
Attributes Word Wrap, How Hint and Tab Stop are the only ones checked.
None of the Cut, Copy and Paste Settings are checked to prevent the
respective action.
Here's a sample that illustrates the use of such property ...

This is an External Form File and you should be able to run from any
R:BASE eXtreme 9.5 session regardless of the connected database.
Have fun!
Very Best R:egards,
