Copying a textbox's contents

[Trancedified]

Hello,

VB Windows App:

Is there a way to get the contents of a textbox from any existing client application (like a VB app, a textbox from a Web Page, Word, Excel etc.) I was thinking of using the double click event which selects all the contents in a foreign textbox and then using a mousedown event to "copy" onto my own VB textbox.

There's got to be a way as long as the user isn't doing "copy and paste" manually with the mouse. Is there an event that can capture the contents of a textbox?
Any examples will be great!

Thanks.

Chris
