paste "kill ring" buffer to Windows via Exceed?

[F. Chen]

Hi all:

I think that this might be a FAQ but I have not been able to find an
answer. So any help would be greatly appreciated.

I am using Exceed 7.1.0.6 on Windows XP, emacs 19.34.1 on Unix, and I
want to copy and paste things between two enviroment, e.g. emacs
windows and word documents. My current setting is such that I have to
highlight lines in emacs (it automatically copies the region) and
Ctrl-V paste them into a windows application. Similarly, I highlight
in windows, Ctrl-C, and use mouse to paste into emacs.

I would like to do this without using the mouse, e.g. set mark in
emacs, copy (Atl-W), and then go to the word document and use Ctrl-V
to paste. As I think the problem I have now is that the "kill ring"
buffer in emacs is not the same as clipboard buffer in the windows and
I don't know how to set them to be the same. (I also tried
clipboard-kill-region and clipboard-kill-ring-save in emacs, but that
doesn't seem to do anything when it comes to pasting into windows
applications).

Thank you very much,

FC

This will probably work for you.

(setq x-select-enable-clipboard t) ;; consult clipboard on yanking.

It will atleast allow interaction between emacs and other X11 apps.
If Exceed integrates the clipboard buffer for you, it should work.

Thanks Chris, but this doesn't seem to help. What I copy in emacs
(using Alt-W) is still not passed onto the clipboard...
