Specifies the Windows Data Interchange Format (DIF), which Windows Forms does not directly use. This static field is read-only.
Syntax
Remarks
DIF is a format consisting of ASCII codes in which database, spreadsheet, and similar documents can be structured to facilitate their use by and transfer to other programs.
This field is used by the System.Windows.Forms.IDataObject interface and the System.Windows.Forms.DataObject class to specify the data type.
When adding to an System.Windows.Forms.IDataObject or to an implementation of System.Windows.Forms.DataObject, use this field as the format for the IDataObject.SetData(string, bool, object) and DataObject.SetData(string, bool, object) methods.
To see if an object of this type exists, use this field as the format for the IDataObject.GetDataPresent(string, bool) and DataObject.GetDataPresent(Type) methods.
To get an object of this type, use this as the format for the IDataObject.GetData(string, bool) and DataObject.GetData(string, bool) methods.
