"Cut" an Entire Form

[bradzy88]

How do i make the entire form delete and add to my clipboard as in cut without having to click on the side bar? Is there a code for the operation.

Thanks!!

Edit, Select All from the menu bar, or even easier, Control-A to select ALL controls on the form.

(a) Why are you trying to do this programatically?

(b) Check out the CopyObject method; this might be what you need. However, note that in Access 2000 (and possibly other versions), there is a bug in Access which corrupts parts of your database if you copy whole Form or Report objects which happen to have embedded code (you'll get a meaningless 'network error', when this happens). There are some good related threads on this subject.
