I would like to press ctrl + left click on a file and then the file name goes to the clipboard. My files will be on my desktop or various folders and will be Excel, Word, PDF, JPEG, PNG... etc.

For example, after the script is run I will have these on the clipboard:


C:\Users\Bob\Desktop\Book1.xls

Or...

C:\Users\Bob\Desktop\Book2.pdf

Not to hijack the thread, but can you quickly explain why you're assigning the variable Clipboard to itself? I get the gist of the rest, but I don't understand why you have that line of code.
