Hi Rand,
This should be one of the following:
set the clipboarddata["html"] to the htmlText of field "my_field"
set the clipboarddata["rtf"] to the rtfText of field "my_field"
set the clipboarddata["unicode"] to the unicodeText of field "my_field"
Due to bugs in Revolution, each method has advantages and disadvantages.

Hello, all. I have Unicode text in a field, the text consisting of
syllabic
characters from the Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics portion of
Unicode. It
displays fine, and I’m very happily able to produce it via a script,
but I
can’t figure out how to copy it to the clipboard so that it comes
out right
pasted into, say, MicroSoft Word.
The Revolution dictionary says:
To copy or export Unicode text from a field while preserving font,
style,
size, and color information, use the htmlText property.
Now, really, this note is not terribly helpful, because it doesn't
tell you
HOW to do this!
So when I try something like:
set the clipboarddata["htmltext"] to the htmlText of field "my_field"
I get garbage pasted into Word.
And when I try
set the clipboarddata["htmltext"] to the unicodeText of field
"my_field"
Still garbage. What is the command (sequence) to get the Unicode
text to
properly copy? Thanks.
