Copying the Complete Content into the Clipboard
The standard Copy method in TX Text Control .NET for Windows Forms may omit certain document elements from the clipboard. Saving the entire document content as RTF via the Save method into a string variable and placing it on the clipboard through a DataObject captures everything.
Sometimes, it is necessary to copy the complete content of TX Text Control .NET for Windows Forms into the clipboard. If you do this by selecting everything and using the Copy() method, not every element will be copied into the clipboard.

Dim data As New DataObject
Dim RTF As String
TextControl1.Save(RTF, TXTextControl.StringStreamType.RichTextFormat)
