BOOL WinQueryClipbrdFmtInfo(hab, fmt, pfsFmtInfo)
HAB hab;               /* handle of the anchor block             */
USHORT fmt;            /* specifies data format                  */
PUSHORT pfsFmtInfo;    /* receives memory model and usage flags  */
 
The WinQueryClipbrdFmtInfo function determines whether a particular format
of data is present in the clipboard and, if so, provides information about
that format.
 
Parameter   Description
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
 
hab         Identifies an anchor block.
 
fmt         Specifies the format of the data that this function queries. The
            following list describes the standard clipboard formats:
 
            Value           Meaning
            ────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
            CF_BITMAP       The data is a bitmap. The CFI_HANDLE
                            memory-model flag must be set in the pfsFmtInfo
                            parameter.
 
            CF_DSPBITMAP    The data is a bitmap representation of a private
                            data format. The clipboard viewer can use this
                            format to display a private format. The
                            memory-model flag CFI_HANDLE must be set in the
                            pfsFmtInfo parameter.
 
            CF_METAFILE     The data is a metafile. The CFI_HANDLE
                            memory-model flag must be set in the pfsFmtInfo
                            parameter.
 
            CF_DSPMETAFILE  The data is a metafile representation of a
                            private data format. The clipboard viewer can
                            use this format to display a private format. The
                            memory-model flag CFI_HANDLE must be set in the
                            pfsFmtInfo parameter.
 
            CF_TEXT         The data is an array of text characters, which
                            may include newline characters to mark line
                            breaks. The null character indicates the end of
                            the text data. The CFI_SELECTOR memory-model
                            flag must be set in the pfsFmtInfo parameter.
 
            CF_DSPTEXT      The data is a textual representation of a
                            private data format. The clipboard viewer can
                            use this format to display a private format. The
                            memory-model flag CFI_SELECTOR must be set in
                            the pfsFmtInfo parameter.
 
pfsFmtInfo  Points to a variable that receives the memory-model and usage
            (CFI) flags. It consists of a memory-model flag and a usage flag
            from the following lists:
 
            Memory-model flag  Meaning
            ────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
            CFI_SELECTOR       Handle is a selector plus zero offset to a
                               segment in storage.
 
            CFI_HANDLE         Handle is the handle to a metafile or
                               bitmap.
 
            Usage flag        Meaning
            ────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
            CFI_OWNERFREE     Handle is not freed by the WinEmptyClipbrd
                              function. The application must free the data
                              if necessary.
 
            CFI_OWNERDISPLAY  Format will be drawn by the clipboard owner in
                              the clipboard-viewer window by means of the
                              WM_PAINTCLIPBOARD message. The ulData
                              parameter should be NULL.
 
Return Value
 
The return value is TRUE if the format exists. Otherwise, it is FALSE,
indicating that the format does not exist.
