Copy and paste

As Some might know I am new to B+ and as my first project I am making an IDE. I want to have a copy and paste feature in the menu, but cannot figure out how to put the text in the text field in to the clipboard. I have the menu written I just need to know how to make the menu item work.
Thanks

Thanks agian. I am now working on trying to clear the text field when opening a file, it'll open a file and all, but it just adds it to the end of the currently opend one at the moment, but I have only been trying for a few minutes.

Setgadgettext gad,""

that still didn't work.
heres my code:

Select event
	Case 1
		Notify "you selected new"
	
	Case 2
			filelocation$ = RequestFile("Open a File","bb,cpp,crx,c,h,hpp,b3d,doc,txt,htm,html")
			file = ReadFile(filelocation$)
			
			SetGadgetText(codearea,"")
			
			
			While Not Eof(file)
				tmp1$ = ReadLine(file)
				tmp2$ = tmp2$ +Chr$(13)+tmp1$
			Wend
			AddTextAreaText(codearea,tmp2$)
			CloseFile(file)
	Case 4
			filedir$ = RequestFile("Save Your Script","",True)
			file = WriteFile(filedir$)
			WriteString(file,code)
			CloseFile(file)
	
	Case 6
		End
	End Select
EndIf

Forever

Well part of it. Case 2 is where the open file code is.

Did you clear all obsolete variables before reloading?

If you keep data inside tmp2$ it will add the previous loaded text.

	Case 2
			filelocation$ = RequestFile("Open a File","bb,cpp,crx,c,h,hpp,b3d,doc,txt,htm,html")
			file = ReadFile(filelocation$)
			
			SetGadgetText(codearea,"")
			
			
			While Not Eof(file)
				tmp1$ = ReadLine(file)
				tmp2$ = tmp2$ +Chr$(13)+tmp1$
			Wend
			AddTextAreaText(codearea,tmp2$)
			tmp2$ = "" 
			CloseFile(file)

That works now, but it adds a space at the top. I know this is like a really simple bug, but i just can't find it.

You are adding a chr(13) at the top before the first line is added.
You can fix it by placing tmp2$ = readline(file) above the while nof eof(file) line.
