QE v4.0c clipboard bug

[rags]

When I select the edit->clipboard when the clipboard is empty, it causes QE to crash bringing up our send/don't send friend.

Thanks Mike,

I already have this one identified. If there is no text data on the clipboard at OS startup the effect occurs. If there has been one clipboard copy operation since the machine was booted it does not occur. It is the actual call to the API before it produces the return value that crashes it. I have not yet found a solution to the problem as it involves a workaround of a problem with an API call.

I don't get it, you mean the API causes an exception when the clipboard hasn't been used since booting windows ?

Which API and which OS ? Can you provide a testcase ?

Maybe you can set an exception handler to bypass the problem.
