I don't think you can do this directly in DJGPP (or at least, I don't know how). However, if you use Richard Dawe's libwin plus first load the NTOLDAPP TSR/DLL combo, you can do so (see the cliptest.c example in libwin's .ZIP). I tested this on XP, and it worked fine. Not ideal, I guess, but it does work. I think some people here are trying to suggest (indirectly) that you should use Win32 stuff for Win32 features (e.g. Cygwin or MinGW) since DJGPP is only a DOS compiler. DOS support in modern NT-based Windows (2k, XP, Vista) is not what it used to be, so you have to work around the limitations. http://homepages.nildram.co.uk/~phekda/richdawe/mysoft.html http://www.phatcode.net/downloads.php?id=188
