Hiya,
Is there any way to copy a string value to the windows clipboard through maxscript?
Cheers

Search in the mxs manual for "Copy To and From Clipboard"

Let me guess you're using Max 9?

Clipboard stuff is new to 2008 (or AVG).

setClipBoardText string
getclipboardtext()

yep, max9, but I have the AVG extensions so it should work. Cheers mate!

Or use the methods in the Clipboard class in .NET, if you don't want external dependencies, etc.
