I''m adding a cut copy paste button for my form (in Visual Basic). Cutting is simple enough I cycle through every control if it''s a form and it''s got highlighted text then add it to the clipboard. Pasting however is harder I cycle through every control and check which control has got focus, and use the clipboard gettext method. How do I check if it''s got focus?

Nope. Doesn''t show up as a property or method. Here''s the code it might help:

  Public Sub Paste()Dim iControl As Control''cycle through every controlFor Each iControl In frmHospital.Controls    ''if the control is a textbox    If TypeOf iControl Is TextBox Then        If iControl.checkifit''sgotfocushere Then            ''paste it        End If    End IfNextEnd Sub
