Citrix XPe FR2
W2K

Got an issue where users have a small inhouse application that copies a
screen of text data to the clipboard using the following VB function -
Clipboard.Clear (to clear the clipboard) and then Clipboard.SetText
ctlTXText.Text - to write the text to the clipboard.

Now the issue is that "randonmly" the users clipboard gets cleared before
they get chance to paste this. I'm guessing that Citrix is having some kind
of contention and wins over the user. As this NEVER fails on a local
instance of the program.

Is there a hotfix / reg entry to protect the users clipboard contents ?...
If not.. could someone explain the circumstances in which the users
clipboard gets emptied - or do I need to write with another func ?.

Thanks
