COleClientItem::CreateFromClipboard

BOOL CreateFromClipboard( OLERENDER render = OLERENDER_DRAW, CLIPFORMAT cfFormat = 0, LPFORMATETC lpFormatEtc = NULL );

Return Value

Nonzero if successful; otherwise 0.

Parameters

render

Flag specifying how the server will render the OLE item. For the possible values, see OLERENDER in the OLE documentation.

cfFormat

Specifies the Clipboard data format to be cached when creating the OLE item.

lpFormatEtc

Pointer to a FORMATETC structure used if render is OLERENDER_FORMAT or OLERENDER_DRAW. Provide a value for this parameter only if you want to specify additional format information beyond the Clipboard format specified by cfFormat. If you omit this parameter, default values are used for the other fields in the FORMATETC structure.

Remarks

Call this function to create an embedded item from the contents of the Clipboard. You typically call this function from the message handler for the Paste command on the Edit menu. (The Paste command is enabled by the framework if the CanPaste member function returns nonzero.)

For more information, see OLERENDER and FORMATETC in the OLE documentation.
