    <p>You were doing it right. The problem here is that clipboard class doesn't somehow encount to be used in console applications. Your application failed on the following line from the <code>lclintf.inc</code> file, where the <code>WidgetSet</code> object is going to be accessed. That fails because the <code>WidgetSet</code> variable is <code>nil</code> while you're in console application just because console application doesn't need any widgets:</p> <pre><code>function ClipboardRegisterFormat(const AMimeType: string): TClipboardFormat; begin Result := WidgetSet.ClipboardRegisterFormat(AMimeType); end; </code></pre> <p>To workaround this you may add the <code>Interfaces</code> unit to your uses clause and add the <code>LCL</code> package dependency to your project:</p> <pre><code>program Project1; uses Clipbrd, Interfaces; begin Clipboard.AsText := 'Hello, I''m a text from clipboard!'; end. </code></pre> <p>But according to your additional question it seems that you want to make the application, which will just copy certain text to the clipboard and terminates. That's what the console application type is not a right choice because of that console window shown for a short time. For that sort of application I would make the formless window application (please note that I know this trick only from Windows platform):</p> <ol> <li>Create a new application through menu <code>File / New...</code>, select <code>Project / Application</code> in the dialog's tree view and create a new project by clicking <code>OK</code></li> <li>Now let's remove the only unit (with a form) from your project; go to the menu <code>Project / Remove from Project</code> and in the newly opened dialog select <code>unit1.pas</code> and click <code>OK</code></li> <li>Now you have a unitless (and formless) application, so what remains is to write a code to copy the text to the clipboard; so now let's open the project source from menu <code>Project / View Project Source</code> and as the project source paste a code like this (this is the shortest possible form):</li> </ol> <p></p> <pre><code>program Project1; uses Interfaces, Forms, Clipbrd; begin Application.Initialize; Clipboard.AsText := 'Hello, I''m a text from clipboard!'; end. </code></pre>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
