A clipboard is shared among process assigned to the same WindowStation. By default all services run in another WindowStation with it's own clipboard. Your service will be assigned to the same WindowStation as interactive processes (usually WinSta0) *only* if you explicitly state that it is interactive when creating it. You can find all the details you need, either in MSDN or in excellent book series "Inside Microsoft Windows" by D. Solomon and M. Russinovich. Or I can try to make an example of Python service, accessing/monitoring cliboard, if you need it. :) _______________________________________________ Python-win32 mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32
