No need to use the clipboard; you can simply use OLE automation to insert
the information direct into the Word document.
Hurray! I didn't dare mention this as I have no idea how; glad you took
this one :-L
If your user has something valuable on the clipboard already, you'd be
pretty unpopular if you trashed it without warning.
Nah. User is asking for function, user got clipboard, why user complain?
Interface consultant, huh? Stupid job you guys got.
I mean, nothing directed to you, Kersten! There are, say, groups of
users with different perceptions of how systems should perform. One type
of user prefers to specify everything, another happily tries everything
and relies on Undo. You cannot design for everyone. Well, not for a
happy everyone.
