It may very well be the programs. What applications are crashing? Have you tried re-installing them? How often do they crash? If you delete the tmp files, how often do they re-appear? etc.

I meant a way that wouldn't interfere with the users keyboard... See, if I check to see if the alt or control keys areheld down(I'm using a hotkey here..) and then I put them up(I have to or else I can't invoke a copy/paste etc.) and then I put them back down afterwards, it doesnt work many...

I'm developing an application where I need to make another application copy/cut/paste to the clipboard. I didn't think this would work, but I tried it and it didn't... PostMessage(GetForegroundWindow(),WM_KEYDOWN,'C',NULL); PostMessage(GetForegroundWindow(),WM_KEYUP,'C',NULL); WM_COPY paste etc...

I'm trying to lock a clipboard object, and GlobalLock returns NULL... I use this to get the last error: FormatMessage( FORMAT_MESSAGE_ALLOCATE_BUFFER |FORMAT_MESSAGE_FROM_SYSTEM,NULL,GetLastError(),MAKELANGID( LANG_ENGLISH, SUBLANG_ENGLISH_US ),(LPTSTR)&ptr,0, NULL); It says "The operation...

Yes, I already am checking it with CF_TEXT. Does anyone here know how to get the clipboard notification code working?

Whenever I post in here I don't seem to get any (meaningful) replies. So I'd like to know if this is a beginner's forum or an intermediate/expert forum? I'm no expert, but if no one here can help me I might as well be.

Yes I read that and I DO check to make sure the clipboard contains text before I use it. This isn't the problem. I test it by copying text to the clipboard, and that is when I get the access violations. Is there a way I can have the access violation just not show up?...

In my program I use code like AnsiString b1 = Clipboard()->AsText; and int i = Clipboard()->AsText.Length(); Both cause access violations. My program uses AsText hundreds of times in it, but not all the time does it cause an access violation. I check to see if the Clipboard() == NULL and if...

I was searching the web and found this site that displays how to do it in VB: http://www.vbweb.co.uk/show/224 I don't know visual basic, but if the winapi calls are all the same, I believe this can be converted to C++ code without too much trouble?

I have created a network application that unifies the clipboards of multiple computers over a network, it will even detect URL links clicked on and mailto: links clicked on and run the associated program on another computer if you want it to, as well as many other advanced options... now my...

Hello BTecho, I noticed in CBuilder5 ExtractShortPathName does NOT work correctly in some circumstances. I forget which exactly, but I believe it was circumstances with spaces and/or ()s in the file name.

I believe when you copy a file (like from Explorer) to the windows clipboard the contents of the file are not dealt with at all- only the file name. When you decide to paste, then it initiates a copy (or move) process that deals with the contents of the file, but only then. I need to be able to...

Yes hennep, hat I need it to do is copy the file onto the clipboard like when you press Ctrl-C in windows explorer, not copy the contents of the file whatsoever.

Uhh, I wish it was that easy, but it's not. I need to copy a file itself onto the clipboard, not text, not an image, not raw data, but a file (e.x. C:\readme.txt), where the user can just press ctl-v and paste it someplace else. I'm going to be astonished if no one knows how to do that!

Hello there, I'm programming an application that needs to copy a file onto the clipboard so the user can paste it in a folder of their choice. As far as I can tell the TClipboard won’t do that, and I've Ole implementation but its just one maze of code and structures after another... If anyone...
