uh, Mark... Is this behavior documented? I'm not at all sure that I would have thought to "query the clipboard" any more than I would have thought to re-read a just-written file record "to see if it has data". A copy operation, immediately followed by a paste operation, that failed on occasion would definitely raise my astonishment factor... -Chip- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sponsored by: SourceForge.net Community Choice Awards: VOTE NOW!
