Putting a string value in the clipboard

I'd like a macro to end with a value being in the clipboard. I found a klugey
way to do this, but would like to know the right way.

Don't miss the information at the bottom about setting a reference to
the Forms library.

The note you mention says to load Microsoft Forms 2.0 Object Library, but it
should also mention that this is file FM20.dll. The file was already on my
computer, so I'll assume it's on others.

In any case, the code with that library did the trick. Thanks.
