    • ]]>     net logo.jpg 150x150 Use clipboard (copy/paste) in C# console applicationThis took me few minutes to figure out and was quite annoying. First you must add a reference to System.Windows.Forms in your application. Go to Project -> Add reference, select System.Windows.Forms from .NET tab in the window that just opened.  You must avoid the ThreadStateException by applying the STAThread attribute to your Main() function. Then you can use the Clipboard functions without any problems.

using System.Windows.Forms;
 
class Program {
    [STAThread]
    static void Main(string[] args) {
         Clipboard.SetText("this is in clipboard now");
    }
}
