In your Class ClipBoard, neither the Clear sub nor the Let Data sub work. I mean they have no effect on Windows Clipboard. Actually, and ironically so, the only sub that works is the one you have not included in your example, that is Get Data! (I have tested this code quite a few times.)

However, it's not your fault. I have tried to copy data to clipboard with ClipboardData.SetData and it's impossible. At least not by creating an "htmlfile" object. Maybe it works by creating an instance of "InternetExplorer.Application" as I have seen in a few cases, but I have not tried it. I hate creating application instances for such simple tasks!
