Store RTF text as string on clipboard?

[Tom]

I have some data in a DataTable, including a column of RTF (Rich Text
Format) data. I wanted to be able to create a comma or tab-delimited
string which I could then put on the clipboard, and then retrieve back
later on or send it to Excel.

I used a StringBuilder to 'build' the text string. What happened,
though, is that after the first string line was created (separated by a
carriage return/line feed), I added additional lines but they never
show up when getting the string back via the StringBuilder ToString. I
checked the data length of the string as I was building it, and it did
increase constantly in size; however, only that first record would show
up on the display and when I did the ToString. This also occured even
if I did a plain old concatenation via & or Concat.

I -THINK- it has something to do with the RTF field being placed on the
string - it almost seems that after the first one is placed no other
strings are displayed (even they the length says they are being added).

So... The real question is: If I have to build a string that is
composed of multiple RTF fields, how do I do that?

Thanks.

Tom
