I wouldn't suggest using the clipboard, as the user may want to use it
him/herself. The user could in fact copy something to the clipboard in
another program at the same time as your program does, and end up with
unusual results.
I suggest using the stream option.

Whoops! serves me right 8-)
I should have tested my code before jumping in.
Here are 2 methods that *do* work for me
Procedure StreamCopy (RE1, RE2: tRichEdit);
var MyStream: TMemoryStream;
begin
MyStream := TMemoryStream.Create;
Try
RE1.Lines.SaveToStream (MyStream);
MyStream.Seek(0, 0);
RE2.Lines.LoadFromStream (MyStream);
finally
MyStream.Free;
end;
end;
and
Procedure ClipBoardCopy (RE1, RE2: tRichEdit);
begin
RE1.SelectAll;
RE1.CopyToClipboard;
RE2.Clear;
RE2.PasteFromClipboard;
end;
HTH this time.
