  • .NET Clipboard Problems Under VirtualPC

    When performing Clipboard operations (SetDataObject, SetImage, etc.) in a .NET program under VPC, you may encounter the error "Requested clipboard operation did not succeed." This error turns out to be a major pain if you are doing dev. in a VPC like mine, because 99% of your calls will fail. Every once and a while, you'll get lucky and one will go through (it seems to work if you go to another application, cut some text, paste that text, then come back and use the clipboard in your .NET app).
