Does somebody know how to change the clipboard of Win? I need this for my media-player...

CosmoX 2.0 has clipboard routines for QB which you can access the Windows Clipboard with.

Or isn't that what you meant?

Yes, but i want a routine, which doesn't need a library, you know? To desribe my wanted feature: I want a routine, which allow me the access to the clipboard (copy&paste) of windows. The clipboard is the content of what i'm copying at the moment...

You're going to need a library anyways, as it requires the use of QB's default library. You'll need to look up interrupt 2Fh.

If you're thinking about making a sound slave using the clipboard, then you might as well forget about it...the clipboard method is exceptionally slow. I used the technique for the original DS4QB with mixed results.

This INP & OUT doesn't work on XP-machines perfectly. But I found a newer inp/out-library for windows... so iam not forced to use the old library from win95. May I will post my results later, when i have finished my work...
