contextmenustrip copy paste

[John]

I'm trying to implement a contextmenustrip that can cut, copy, and paste. I have the following code that creates the contextmenustrip for the databoundgrid.

databoundgrid.contextmenusstrip = this.contextmenustrip

How do I get the selected area from the grid and copy to the clipboard? Thanks!

Hi Coder12345,

You can achieve this using CutPaste.CopyTextToClipboard() method, which takes GridRangeInfoList as the argument. Below is the code snippet:

gridControl1.CutPaste.CopyTextToClipboard(gridControl1.Selections.Ranges); //For text
///gridControl1.CutPaste.CopyCellsToClipboard(gridControl1.Selections.Ranges,true); //For styles

Also you can do this by calling the CutPaste.Copy() method in a grid. It copies the selected ranges in a grid.

gridControl1.CutPaste.Copy();//

Best regards,
