How to Get Filenames from Clipboard ?


"If I use the Windows Explorer to copy a file, how can I use the paste function in my application?"

This code retrieves the filenames from the Clipboard to a memo component. Drop a memo and a button on a form and set the OnClick of a button to:

uses
  clipbrd, shellapi;

procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject) ;
var
  f: THandle;
  buffer: Array [0..MAX_PATH] of Char;
  i, numFiles: Integer;
begin
  Clipboard.Open;
  try
    f:= Clipboard.GetAsHandle( CF_HDROP ) ;
    If f <> 0 Then Begin
      numFiles := DragQueryFile( f, $FFFFFFFF, nil, 0 ) ;
      memo1.Clear;
      for i:= 0 to numfiles - 1 do begin
        buffer[0] := #0;
        DragQueryFile( f, i, buffer, sizeof(buffer)) ;
        memo1.lines.add( buffer ) ;
      end;
    end;
  finally
    Clipboard.close;
  end;
end;
