All what you need to do is to copy data into clipboard: Clipboard: Using the Windows Clipboard[^]. It enables you to paste data from clipboard into any other application, which provides this functionality ;)

It is a good idea to do it.I will add some more for OP, you can have a try with SendKeys.Send() to trigger Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V to do the work.
