w32-get-clipboard-data returns nil if Emacs owns the clipboard, so that the internal yank implementation will be used instead, as that will preserve text properties in addition to the raw text.

If you copy some text to the clipboard outside of Emacs, does w32-get-clipboard-data return the expected result then?  In what way is copy/paste not working for you in Emacs?
