[fpc-pascal] GetClipboardFormatName causing an Error 216

[James Richters]

I don’t have Lazarus, just FPC,   Thanks for the link.
Thanks for the information, I understand how it works now.  
I appreciate the help.

I think the link you indtended ater 'See the code at.' Didn't come though, can you pleaese send it again?
 

Sorry, I assumed SynEdit would be recognized as part of Lazarus (yes its the fpc list, but the name may still be known). So I simply gave a file location in the Lazarus source.

It can be found here: https://github.com/User4martin/lazarus/blob/master/components/synedit/syneditmiscclasses.pp#L1674

Some of the code is specific to SynEdit (E.g. information on code-folding).

But ReadFromClipboard https://github.com/User4martin/lazarus/blob/master/components/synedit/syneditmiscclasses.pp#L1699 
checks for either flag being present, and that is all you need. => Then the normal text, and line-ends in the text mark where each column ends.
