In Help for using the Clipboard in a Word Macro the examples all show "Dim XXX as DataObject". When I try to use that in a macro I get "Compile error: User-defined type not defined". The Help for "DataObject" isn't much use. I used to use the Clipboard a lot, but changes in Word caused me to back out all that code. I'd really like to use the Clipboard but can't seem to get it working! Any help?
