class

The Clipboard and drag-and-drop operations require you to encapsulate data into an IDataObject derived class. In part, this demands that you specify the Format of the data encapsulated, represented as string. There are several standard formats that the system understands, such as Dib (device-independent bitmap) and UnicodeText , and static properties are provided that return an appropriate format string to identify them. For more complex situations, there are also two static GetFormat() methods . Both return a Format object, mapping a format identification string to a clipboard format ID (an integer). The string version also registers the specified clipboard format with the OS if it hasn't been registered previously.
