Is there a way to disable the Windows XP clipboard to protect sensitive
company information from being copied?

Hi Missy
Thanks for that tip. But we cannot find how to uninstall the clipboard. I
can only turn it off, but they can then turn it back on. Can you tell me how
to uninstall it?
Thanks again

Sharon,
According to information I encountered when I started programming, the
clipboard capability is a fundamental system in Windows. If it were
uninstalled, Windows would not be able to work. Things may have changed, but
I think the only thing you can do is to disable user access, and try to find
how to disable user access to the switch.
On the other hand, just how much of a security problem is this?

Hi Dave
This program is for a trucking company that does not want employees to be
able to print screen data and pictures from their sales databases. I can
prevent them from copying the database from the program we wrote but I am
looking for a way to disable the Windows clipboard so they can't Copy /
Paste. I have another program where this option might be requested soon as
well.

Sharon,
OK, I think you ought to be in a Win32 API newsgroup.
I think you might be looking at hooking Windows events for the Screen Print
problem. Look for Hook or Hooking in the Windows API reference.
You should be able to disable <Ctrl><C> and <Ctrl><X> within your program
relatively easily, depending on which programming environment you are using.
You should also be able to flush the clipboard on exit from your
application. Take a look at the Clipboard messages and functions in the
Windows API.
