It depends on what the application supports. Some support the clipboard
directly, otherwise, assuming they support the selection, you do something
like:
tell application "X"
set aVariable to selection
end tell
set the clipboard to aVariable
But most of the time, putting things on the clipboard is unnecessary and
anti-social behavior.
