Solved Copy all Date on form to clipboard to user can past this into another system

The code needs to be in a standard module btw, not the form module.

I dont use 64 bit so cant really help you with ptrsafe issue.
Yes i have this as a stand alone module :)
 
Glad you've got it sorted. Good luck with your project.
 
Thanks Uncle. This looks like a 64 bit version that allegedly works. Cant test it as I dont have 64bit access.

Here's an example I knocked up which should go through all the Text box's on your form and concatenate the label and contents of the text box together. However, there is one problem, there is no guarantee it will process them in the correct order. You could try moving them around, you could try examining the controls Tab order, but that might be complicated!

EDIT:- I've updated the sample file to work with copy to clipboard, on both 32 & 64-bit MS Access. I know it works on 64-bit, but I don't know if it works on 32-bit, if anyone could check, would be most grateful!
Can confirm works fine in Access 2016 32-bit
