Syntax
CLB.Set by Type|P1|P2
Parameter Explanation
P1 - This parameter represents the data you want to place on the clipboard.
It must be passed as a string, which can contain any text or data that you wish to copy to the clipboard.
P2 - This parameter specifies the format of the clipboard data.
Windows supports a variety of predefined clipboard formats (like CF_TEXT, CF_BITMAP, etc.) as well as custom formats defined by applications.
The format is passed as a number "1" or as a String like "CF_Text".
This value determines how the clipboard data should be interpreted by the receiving application.
For example, CF_TEXT indicates that the data is plain text, while CF_BITMAP indicates a bitmap image.
If omitted the default is CF_Text.
