>You can use FoxTools to access the command window. Here's the basic code that should get you started. See George's Extended Foxtools Help File #9333 for more info.

LOCAL ARRAY laEnv [25]
>SET LIBRARY TO FoxTools ADDITIVE
>* Get the whandle for the current window
>lnHandle = _WonTop()
>lnResult = _EdGetEnv( lnHandle, @laEnv )
>* [ 17 ] SelStart
>* [ 18 ] SelEnd
>* [ 25 ] Editor Session:  0 - Command Window
>IF ( lnResult = 0 ) OR;
>		( laEnv[17] = 0 ) OR ;
>		( laEnv[25] <> 0 )
>  _CLIPTEXT = ""
>  RETURN
>ENDIF
>
>* Get the current cursor position
>lnSelStart = laEnv[17]
>lnSelEnd = laEnv[18]
>* Store result into clipboard
>_CLIPTEXT = _EdGetStr( lnHandle, lnSelStart, lnSelEnd )
>RETURN
