Labels to display value & copy to clipboard

Permanently deleted user

Hi,

 

For one of my tools I need to display a calculated value in a form and later copy it to the clipboard.

 

I could not find any Labels so used TextBox instead.

 

 

The issue is that within the DisplayForm Runtime Modifications, I am setting the value of the textboxes but it is not getting reflected.

 

 

Also, as the Clipboard method is SetText(string), I guess I wuld need to add a VBScript to achieve it.

 

 

Any help with the above issues?

 

 

Thanks in advance!

  How do you set the value of the TextBox, with an Assign with form.Find(Of TextBoxFormItem)("TextBox1").DefaultText = value? Are you using the correct TextBox IDs?

   

  You can set the DefaultText once, when loading the form.

   

   

  I do not know if it is possible to copy a value to the Clipboard.

  Hi,

   

  I am doing form.Find(Of TextBoxFormItem)("TextBox1").Text= value

   

  This "value" is output of the previous custom activity which I want to show in the form. I was forced to use a textbox as there are no Labels.

   

  It works fine if I use an Alert box, however I need to copy the value to clipboard for the user to paste. Can I not use System.Windows.Forms.Clipboard.SetText(string) in a VB/C# script activity?

  Okay, so "form.Find(Of TextBoxFormItem)("TextBox1").DefaultText = value" did the job.

   

  Copy to clipboard seems not possible...

   

   

  Thanks for your help
