I using VB6 and display info in a Flexgrid. I want to select a few lines and then copy and paste the info into another app e.g. Word.

concatenate the text in the cells in a big string (use comma or tab to separate them) looping through the selected rows and all columns (or some columns) and put the string in the buffer using Clipboard.SetText

That sounds messy I was hoping there was just something I was missing in the properties to enable it. I know to edit it you can use a text box over the top.
