If you just want to move text to and from the clipboard it is easy. Just do this to save to the clipboard: 
Clipboard.SetDataObject(textBox1.Text, true);

And then to pull the text back out it is:

textBox1.Text = Clipboard.GetDataObject().GetData(DataFormats.Text).ToString();

That is assuming you are building a Windows application. It is possible to access the clipboard from ASP.NET but harder and not of much use.

I've got a current cell in a grid.

I assume I need to deal with the  following"
"Public objSel As TextSelection = DTE.ActiveDocument.Selection"

But the docs only show VB usage.

Blech.
