Examples

The following code example uses TextBox, a derived class. It provides Click event handlers for MenuItem objects that perform Cut, Copy, Paste, and Undo operations. This example requires that a TextBox control named textBox1 has been created.

private:
   void Menu_Copy( System::Object^ /*sender*/, System::EventArgs^ /*e*/ )
   {
      // Ensure that text is selected in the text box.   
      if ( textBox1->SelectionLength > 0 )
      {
         // Copy the selected text to the Clipboard.
         textBox1->Copy();
      }
   }

   void Menu_Cut( System::Object^ /*sender*/, System::EventArgs^ /*e*/ )
   {
      // Ensure that text is currently selected in the text box.   
      if (  !textBox1->SelectedText->Equals( "" ) )
      {
         // Cut the selected text in the control and paste it into the Clipboard.
         textBox1->Cut();
      }
   }

   void Menu_Paste( System::Object^ /*sender*/, System::EventArgs^ /*e*/ )
   {
      // Determine if there is any text in the Clipboard to paste into the text box.
      if ( Clipboard::GetDataObject()->GetDataPresent( DataFormats::Text ) == true )
      {
         // Determine if any text is selected in the text box.
         if ( textBox1->SelectionLength > 0 )
         {
            // Ask user if they want to paste over currently selected text.
            if ( MessageBox::Show( "Do you want to paste over current selection?",
               "Cut Example", MessageBoxButtons::YesNo ) == ::DialogResult::No )
            {
               // Move selection to the point after the current selection and paste.
               textBox1->SelectionStart = textBox1->SelectionStart + textBox1->SelectionLength;
            }
         }
         // Paste current text in Clipboard into text box.
         textBox1->Paste();
      }
   }

   void Menu_Undo( System::Object^ /*sender*/, System::EventArgs^ /*e*/ )
   {
      // Determine if last operation can be undone in text box.   
      if ( textBox1->CanUndo == true )
      {
         // Undo the last operation.
         textBox1->Undo();
         // Clear the undo buffer to prevent last action from being redone.
         textBox1->ClearUndo();
      }
   }
private void Menu_Copy(System.Object sender, System.EventArgs e)
 {
    // Ensure that text is selected in the text box.   
    if(textBox1.SelectionLength > 0)
        // Copy the selected text to the Clipboard.
        textBox1.Copy();
 }
 
 private void Menu_Cut(System.Object sender, System.EventArgs e)
 {   
     // Ensure that text is currently selected in the text box.   
     if(textBox1.SelectedText != "")
        // Cut the selected text in the control and paste it into the Clipboard.
        textBox1.Cut();

        {
          // Ask user if they want to paste over currently selected text.
          if(MessageBox.Show("Do you want to paste over current selection?", "Cut Example", MessageBoxButtons.YesNo) == DialogResult.No)
             // Move selection to the point after the current selection and paste.
             textBox1.SelectionStart = textBox1.SelectionStart + textBox1.SelectionLength;
        }
        // Paste current text in Clipboard into text box.
        textBox1.Paste();
    }
 }

    End If
End Sub
 
Private Sub Menu_Paste(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs)
    ' Determine if there is any text in the Clipboard to paste into the text box.
    If Clipboard.GetDataObject().GetDataPresent(DataFormats.Text) = True Then
        ' Determine if any text is selected in the text box.
        If textBox1.SelectionLength > 0 Then

            If MessageBox.Show("Do you want to paste over current selection?", _
                "Cut Example", MessageBoxButtons.YesNo) = DialogResult.No Then
                ' Move selection to the point after the current selection and paste.
                textBox1.SelectionStart = textBox1.SelectionStart + _
                    textBox1.SelectionLength
            End If
        End If 
        ' Paste current text in Clipboard into text box.
        textBox1.Paste()
    End If
End Sub

Private Sub Menu_Undo(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs)
    ' Determine if last operation can be undone in text box.   
    If textBox1.CanUndo = True Then
        ' Undo the last operation.
        textBox1.Undo()
        ' Clear the undo buffer to prevent last action from being redone.
        textBox1.ClearUndo()
    End If
End Sub

Remarks

This method will only cut text from the text box if text is selected in the control. You can use this method, instead of using the Clipboard class, to copy text in the text box and move it to the Clipboard.
