Storing a control in a custom property

[Mike Bonner]

Works with cards too. /shrug
## store card
copy cd "cardname"
put the clipboarddata["objects"] into tVar
encrypt tVar
insert tVar into the database (binary/blob)


## retrieve card
select the card
put it into tVar
decrypt
set the clipboarddata["objects"] to tVar
paste
