CatScript - Copy string to clipboard 2

[man2007]

Is there any option to copy a string value to clipboard.

Sub Copy_to_Clipboard()

sString = "Paste To Clipboard"

Set WshShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
Set oExec = WshShell.Exec("clip")

Set oWrite = oExec.stdIn

oWrite.WriteLine sString
oWrite.Close

End Sub

Thanks Alex for the code. I am getting this error:

Sub CATMain ()

Dim CATProdDoc As ProductDocument
Copy_to_Clipboard()

End Sub

Sub Copy_to_Clipboard()

sString = "Paste To Clipboard"

Set WshShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
Set oExec = WshShell.Exec("clip")

Set oWrite = oExec.stdIn

oWrite.WriteLine sString
oWrite.Close

End Sub

Well, I have commented out Types, as I run CATIA on Windows (not UNIX), so the code is running fine now!

Sub CATMain ()

Dim CATProdDoc 'As ProductDocument
Copy_to_Clipboard()

End Sub

Sub Copy_to_Clipboard()

sString = "Paste To Clipboard"

Set WshShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
Set oExec = WshShell.Exec("clip")

Set oWrite = oExec.stdIn

oWrite.WriteLine sString
oWrite.Close

End Sub

Hi,

Because I'm to lazy to right click, go in Properties and copy in clipboard from different workbenches and then paste what is in clipboard where I need, I've adapted the upper code to my needs (I need only names of different types of documents or text/dimension values in drawings).

Sub CATMain()
 
Set oPartDocument = CATIA.ActiveDocument
Set oSelection = oPartDocument.Selection
oSelection.Clear

Dim oInputType(0)
Dim oStatus

Dim MySelection3 As Object
Set MySelection3 = oPartDocument.Selection
Dim inputObjectType(0) As Variant
InputObjectType(0) = "AnyObject"
Dim Result As String
Result = MySelection3.SelectElement2(InputObjectType, "Select a dimesion/text in 2D, or a Body/CATPart/CATProduct in 3D ", False)
Set mySelection = oSelection.Item(1).Value
Dim s 'As String
Dim strToLeft 'As String
s = mySelection.Name
strToLeft = Split(s,".")(0) 

Set mySelection = oSelection.Item(1).Value
' Put it back to the clipboard
Set WshShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
Set oExec = WshShell.Exec("clip")
Set oIn = oExec.stdIn

If strToLeft = "Dimension" Then
oIn.WriteLine mySelection.GetValue.Value
oIn.Close

ElseIf strToLeft = "Text" Then
oIn.WriteLine mySelection.Text
oIn.Close

ElseIf TypeName(MySelection3.Item(1).Value) = "Part" Then
oIn.WriteLine mySelection.Name
oIn.Close

ElseIf TypeName(MySelection3.Item(1).Value) = "Product" Then
oIn.WriteLine mySelection.Name
oIn.Close

ElseIf TypeName(MySelection3.Item(1).Value) = "Body" Then
oIn.WriteLine mySelection.Name
oIn.Close

ElseIf TypeName(MySelection3.Item(1).Value) = "Document" Then
oIn.WriteLine mySelection.Name
oIn.Close

End If

End Sub
