Clipboard problem

[Ze Seb]

Hi all,

I've got a problem using the clipboard. I've got an application that
use word and made some copy a part (text, graphics, shapes, ...) of a
document, paste in an another document, and so many other things...
The problem is that I have to run multiple instance of this program...
The consequence is obvious, it will made some copy/paste conflicts
between multiple instances...

So my question is : How can I mark the thing copied in the clipboard
to avoid this conflict? And is there a way to do that in vba.


Don't know if its the right forum to post my problem, please redirect
me on another if not. Thanks.

Ze Seb

Instead of using the Clipboard, you could add temporary
AutoTextItems to the NormalTemplate, and then delete each
AutoTextItem when you're done. However, if your
organization uses read-only Normal templates, you should
also use the "NormalTemplate.Saved = True" statement so
that Word does not attempt to save Normal.dot after you
modified it.
