Thanks for your response. *When I tried the code on that page I got


Compile error:
user-defined type not defined


I think this means I have to set a Reference to a certain library, but
I can't figure out which one. *Do you know how I get around this?

I have data on the clipboard of a specific format:


Start: *(') (915855.639280, 638485.145786)
End: * *(') (917162.295718, 637714.747829)


I would like to bring this from the windows clipboard into a variable
in which I can parse it (to extract and use the coordinates). *I can't
find this when I search groups and whatnot. *Can anyone help me with
this?
