Hi
How can I use/develop ^c for copy and ^V for paste in clipper 5.xx.

Thanks for your suggestions

It's just that ^C and ^V have rather different meanings for Clipper, so you are destined to use other keyboard combinations.
I have a 'special characters' key-combination, under Alt-V, that I expanded with the copy/paste functionality.
Also switched to Vouch32.lib, that has better support for clipboard functions. The documentation on these functions is a bit shady, but usable.
Find Vouch32 over here:

and a nice forum over here:
