I'm not clear on the redo part, but the other stuff I can help with.

To Cut, Copy text do this:
Clipboard.setText sText
To Paste:
text1.Text = Clipboard.getText
Just when you cut, then set the text to vbnullstring (i.e. cut from a textbox, is copying the text from it, then erasing what's in the textbox)

To Cut, Copy data do this:
Clipboard.setData oData
To Paste:
Object = Clipboard.setData
This would be used for, like images and such.

The help files are pretty simple. They are just Word documents and each topic is a separate page. You index them and set the titles and IDs with footnotes. Then you open the document in the Windows Help Workshop (it comes with VB). If you don't have it, check the 'net. Footnotes are :
# - ID name used in Help Workshop
$ - Title of help topic
K - Indexed words used for searching
Set the footnote tags at the beginning of the topic and save to RTF.

the code I was told for "undo" is:
datCustomers.Recordset.Update
where datCustomers is the database the command is undoing!! eg undoing a changed record etc...

Thanks for the cut/copy/paste code and the help with the help filr..... but is there a way to apply the cut/copy/paste code to a database?? Just woundering!
Thank you!

To Cut/Copy/Paste from and to a database, you'll probably have to use the Windows Clipboard as an inbetween. For that just load the database into the form (like how you are already doing) and update your records. If you have C/C/P programmed into the form you can load a field into a textbox (like fName) and use the Copy/Paste command on the textbox and then update the database.

If you are using a flexgrid, then create a textbox that appears over a cell you click on and that has the contents of that cell in it's text property. Then you can edit the textbox and when finished, set the contents of the flexgrid cell to the new contents of the textbox.

Hope that helps. If you need code, post a msg.
