Hi Becky,

Don't have VFP3.0 to check, but I guess you can use _cliptext, e.g.:
_cliptext=FirstForm.EditBox1.text

You can open any editor (WordPad, for example, and do Ctrl+V to check)

SecondForm.EditBox1.text=_cliptext

I think, this is the easiest way. To make it more accurate, you may save current context of _cliptext in a variable and then restore it back, after you've done.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
