One of my customers installed an application I designed on a brand new PC with Windows 2000. After installation ClipboardGetTableVals would not work even though it worked on the previous PC. This also happened to me when I upgraded to CVI 7.0 and again when our IT staff reinstalled Windows XP on my workstation. The application was developed using CVI 6.0, but I have since tried to debug it using CVI 7.0.
It seems as if our computers are missing some component or object required to make ClipboardGetTableVals work.
I am using the function as follows:
i = ClipboardGetTableVals (MainPanel, PANEL_TABLE, VAL_TABLE_ENTIRE_RANGE, &y);
The function returns no error and indicates that data is available on the clipboard.
I know I can delete the table, create a new one, rebuild and redistribute the product, but that is the less desirable option.
What would cause ClipboardGetTableVals to stop working after a fresh operating system install?
