Copy an expression to the clipboard

Is it possible to print an expression to the clipboard?

Say for example

(setq a (rtos (* 2 pi) 2 4))
(print a <ms clipboard>)

The result of "a" can then be pasted directly from the clipboard into another program

I realise you can copy a string from a text object but just curious to see if their is any workaround

Thanks,

Thanks woodicko, that is a useful article. I will try installing DOSLIB and see how it goes

copy to the clipboard via lisp

VVA is this the correct link? I seem to get stuck into a bit of a loop when I click it..

Thanks,

Sorry. Correct link in #3

Thanks VVA

That is exactly what I was looking for. I was not sure if it could be achieved using Lisp

I must do a little bit more research into exposing other programs through ActiveX and the correct syntax for callling on them but thank you for your help
