RE:RE: Clipboard access through events

That's exactly what my suggestion eliminates.

If Joe goes to BadCo the script from BadCo can not
access the clipboard in any way. Only when the user
says 
"paste" (hitting ctrl-v for example) then the script
gets the data through the paste event. It can also not
write to the clipboard unless the user orders(hitting
ctrl-c) it to copy the data.

No need for message boxes because the script can not
even get to the clipboard directly...no security
problem.

And a message box to ask the user "do you realy mean
to paste the data to the script?" when the user hit's
ctrl-v is a bit pointless, is it not?
(turning the ignition key ... "Do you really want me
to start the motor?" :) )
