Try passing hGlobalMemory instead of lpGlobalMemory in SetClipboardData function.

Suppose i have xml file Test1(This is not created using dotnet parser) which contains the following. " This is a test for the new block. It should all be written on separate lines of text. Using import from the client sometimes will give you a double lined in new block. " Now i am importing this file using my GUI.My GUI uses C# XMLDocument to parse file(Test1) and imports it into new dir (say NewDir).When i open this file from the NewDir the contents are as shown bellow. " This is a test of the new block. It should all be written on separate lines of text. Using import from the client sometimes will give you a double lined in new block. " If u see the " " is missing at the end of the each line.This is causing the problem.When the text under the comment tag is shown in our control a new line is added between the lines. if the file contents of the file in NewDir is same as Test1.It is working fine. Is there a way to get the contents exactly same as in the contents of Test1 using the XMLDocument class. Please let me know if more clarification is required.
