Hi Tim,

Thanks for the reply. I read about that but was hoping to use pywin32. I can see now the folly of that decision.

I have a working minimal test but am looking for something a bit more automated. I bring my app window to the top using pywin32 and a line I need is already highlighted. I can ctrl-c from the keyboard and pyperclip works just fine. However, since the line is already highlighted is there a way to get it without user interaction (ctrl-c)?

The easy way is to use the well-respected `pyperclip` module. You can install it with pip.  The Win32 clipboard APIs are a pain to work with, and of course don't work at all on other systems.
