    The typical big API coding that was used a lot up until at least 2020 to press that Clear All button ( https://i.postimg.cc/ZRRtvBtx/Clear-...Clipboards.jpg )

    This coding below given by me here is a slightly updated version of a coding of "mine"** from 2019 ( https://eileenslounge.com/viewtopic....246770#p246770
    https://eileenslounge.com/viewtopic....50e2b7#p246838
    )
    There are Just minor coding changes here, but also some layout/ formatting changes to make a better comparison to a slightly later appearing coding from Jaafar Tribak

    ** "My" coding was based on a few very similar ones offered in a Thread which originated from Jaafar Tribak, but which at that time did not quite work as required. It’s encouraging that my coding is almost identical to that slightly later one from Jaafar Tribak. He, of course, very likely knew what he was doing. I was frantically blindly empirically trying things, along with a bit of blind intuition.
    So just to stop people getting upset with me again: Most Credit goes to Jaafar Tribak, its all based on some big API codings around the web which in turn I think probably originally started life as a coding from Jaafar Tribak


    Code:
    ' The main source of this coding is API guru Jaafar Tribak. As far as I can tell this  big  coding was something of a standard until at least the end of the last century.  Possibly after that somne smaller ones may have started appearing
