GetFormat

Returns whether the DataObject holds a value in the given clipboard format, as a Boolean.

Syntax: object.GetFormat( Format )

object
required An object expression that evaluates to a DataObject.
Format
required A ClipboardConstants value identifying the format to test for — for example vbCFText, vbCFUnicodeText, vbCFBitmap, vbCFFiles.

The result is True if the DataObject can produce a value in Format, False otherwise. Use this before calling GetData when the format may not be present, so that an unknown format does not silently return Empty.

Example 

If Data.GetFormat(vbCFFiles) Then
    Dim Path As Variant
    For Each Path In Data.Files
        Debug.Print Path
    Next Path
End If
