<p><tt>datatype <a name="ClipboardFormat">ClipboardFormat</a></tt><br>
represents the various kinds of information which can be stored on the clipboard. As
well as the formats defined in Windows the ML interface defines four extra formats.
CF_NONE is used when no format is specified. CF_PRIVATE, CF_GDIOBJ and
CF_REGISTERED are used for clipboard formats in the private range, GDI object range and
registered format range. </p>
<p><tt>datatype <a name="CLIPHANDLE">CLIPHANDLE</a></tt><br>
is used when extracting information from the clipboard or setting the clipboard contents.</p>
