what are you looking for exactly? You are asking about how to change the status message in the tool strip menu, or are you asking how to copy a file / paste a file, or are your asking about how to copy and paste to and from the clipboard or to another application? also any attempted code would be helpful.

all I'm trying to learn is when you create a toolstip, how do you program your button (eg. adding standard tools like open new file and then progrm that button to carry the task is intended to).

for example:

me.close can be use to make your app close down from a button (either from the tool strip or a custom made button) and I want to know how do you program a button to save, another to cut selected item (s), or other to paste the selected item (s).

to save, you want to write the data from the form to a file, using System.IO.StreamWriter.
To copy - you want to copy data to the clipboard - check on msdn for that information - don't really have any apps that do that. Paste would be the same, clipboard.
