All Is it possible to use MapBasic to specify grayscale when printing or can you only use RGB? We have some Xerox printers that are giving us red and green blobs instead of gray - other printers are OK. Or is this a hardware/drivers issue?

There is detailed information about using the clipboard on the Microsoft MSDN web site: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/winui/winui/ windowsuserinterface/dataexchange/clipboard.asp The process is a matter of creating a function that calls the following API functions: OpenClipboard EmptyClipboard SetClipboardData CloseClipboard The functions will expect C data types, just use the equivalent MapBasic type and you should be fine. I've not used this part of the API before so do not know the exact process to follow, read through the documents provided by Microsoft and it should all become clear.
