I'm working on a Forms 4 application, using Forms 4.0.12, that needs to interact with the clipboard in MS-=Windows. I'm trying to use the PASTE_REGION builtin to paste a bitmap from the clipboard into an image item when a button is pressed.
I keep getting the following error:
FRM-41026 Item does not understand operation.
the code in my when-button-pressed trigger is:
begin
GO_ITEM('control.image');
PASTE_REGION;
end;
the bitmap in the clipboard was put there by a non-Forms4 program.
thanks for any help
