Hi,
I want to make a batch program that would load a text from a file and then copy it so when i use ctrl + v it will paste the text from the file.I know how to get a text from a file but i dont know if it is possible to set it to ctrl + v.If its not,then in what languages i can make that ?

I believe both Vista and Windows 7 come with the CLIP command to copy output to the Clipboard.
You can then use CTRL + V to paste it into Notepad or wherever else.
