Remarks

Depending on the value of the ClipboardCopyMode property of the DataGridView control, this method is called by the control's GetClipboardContent method to retrieve a clipboard-formatted value that represents the cell.

The position-related parameters of this method indicate where this cell is located in the table of data representing the region defined by the selected cells in the DataGridView control. Depending on the cell's position, formatting information may be returned by this method in addition to the cell value. For example, the HTML format for a cell in the first column of a row will include the tag that indicates the beginning of a row.

The supported clipboard formats include DataFormats.Text, DataFormats.UnicodeText, DataFormats.Html, and DataFormats.CommaSeparatedValue.

For more information, see the Clipboard class.
