Nov 20, 2008 #2 dilettante MIS Apr 13, 2001 4,475 US VBScript does not exist on its own. What script host are you asking about? WSH? IE? MSHTA? Something else? Some of these expose clipboard support to script via global namespace objects. Upvote 0 Downvote

Nov 20, 2008 Thread starter #3 Gadrin Programmer Mar 24, 2008 18 US WSH would be fine. I'm searching through my script56.chm and not finding anything. > Upvote 0 Downvote
Nov 20, 2008 #4 dilettante MIS Apr 13, 2001 4,475 US WSH doesn't provide clipboard support. You'd need some component or else you must move to another script host (IE, MSHTA, etc.). Upvote 0 Downvote

Nov 20, 2008 #5 dilettante MIS Apr 13, 2001 4,475 US There is the giant hack of firing up an IE instance and automating it though: How Can I Grab a URL From the Clipboard and Then Open That Web Site in a Browser? I think that rewriting this as an MSHTA script (.HTA) is more graceful and less inside-out and resource intensive, but then that's just me. Upvote 0 Downvote
