howdy ryan, well, you could try doing a win32gui.SendMessage and send WM_COPY and WM_PASTE messages to the applications where you want copies and pastes to be carried out. they should be easy to play with, since the lparam and wparam are just set to zero. so you would just get the appropriate window handles, and then win32gui.SendMessage(hwnd1, WM_COPY, 0, 0) win32gui.SendMessage(hwnd2, WM_PASTE, 0, 0) or, you could explore the functions available in the appropriately-named win32clipboard module (the GetClipboardData function looks like it could be appropriate for your purposes). try the following docs for more detail: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/winui/winui/windowsuserinterface/dataexchange/clipboard.asp http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/docs/ActivePython/2.4/pywin32/win32clipboard.html -d _______________________________________________ Python-win32 mailing list Python-win32@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32
