I using interface builder to make my main window. The program I am writing is in Carbon.

Is there a type of text-box, or some combination of settings that allows me to output text to the window, that the user CAN copy to the clipboard, but CAN NOT be edited?

As far as I'm aware, there's nothing like that out there for Carbon. With Cocoa, you could do some work with subclassing to get what you're after, but I don't think there's anything like that for Carbon.

However, you could achieve basically the same effect by disabling editing for the textbox, and then providing a "Copy" button which puts the textbox's current contents onto the Clipboard. Have you considered trying that approach?

I had recalled some sort of manual control like that, but I have not used it before. I'll have to consider that.
Thanks.
