Pasting text and images together?

[Paul Dupuis]

Since my method didn't work, I'd try Marks, namely to put the keys of 
the clipboard array into a variable to look at

on mouseUp
   lock clipboard
   put the keys of the clipboarddata into tKeys1
   put the keys of the fullclipboarddata into tKeys2
   put the keys of the rawclipboarddata into tkeys3
   breakpoint
   unlock clipboard
end mouseUp

I tested this in LC 10dp6 and it works. Once you see what keys are 
present with your mixed text and images copied to the clipboard, you can 
choose which clipboard array and keys to work with to get the data.
