Copy Contents of textbox to clipboard

[dtechpcs]

Hello all,

I'm new here so thanks in advance if anyone can help me out with this problem.

I'm trying to create a form in an Access 2007 database that has a button which when clicked, selects and copies the contents of a text box to the clipboard which I can then paste into another application such as Word or Excel. What I'm looking for is the code that I need to put in the onclick event of the button that will perform the operation I need, if thats right.

I'm not that experienced at writing VBA code so any assistance or push in the right direction would be gratefully appreciated.

Thanks again.
