Hi Claus,

I probably didn't understand
And if you do this:
[code]Public Sub Form_Open()

  TextArea1.Text = "https://www.gambas-buch.de";

End

Public Sub Button1_Click()

  If Clipboard.Type = Clipboard.Text Then
    Clipboard.Copy(TextArea1.Text, "text/html")
    ' Clipboard.Copy(TextArea1.Text, "text/plain")
    TextArea2.Text = Clipboard.Paste()
  Endif

End[/code]

With Best Regards
Gianluigi
