   The clipboard is a general resource and using it to communicate between   
   two programs must be dangerous if anything else may be using it as the   
   same time.   
      
   Upgrade to Delphi 3 and your program becomes under 195kB.   
      
   A decade ago, I wanted to do something like that in Pascal - see TOGL*   
   via sig line 3 if interested - I don't recall trying it after WfWg3.11.
