    2) HTML SDK (C++)
    3) Classes (C++)
    4) INI Editor (Delphi)

    If an application calls OpenClipboard() with hwnd set to NULL, EmptyClipboard() sets the clipboard owner to NULL; this causes SetClipboardData() to fail.
    If you need to call EmptyClipboard(), which looks like is a good idea, then create a dummy window and never show it.
