Re^2: Win32::Clipboard dying?

Hi afoken, Sorry, that was my first time using the site and I am fairly new at perl. I have edited the post as per your suggestions. The error message is simple the message that I have written after .... or die "No Image Captured".

The error message is simple the message that I have written after .... or die "No Image Captured". Read my posting again. I told you where perl hides more information, and that you should write that information somewhere when an error occurs. Compare to the usual idiom for opening files: `open my $f,'<',$filename or die "Can't open $filename: $!"; # *HINT* ------------------------------------------^^` [download] Also note that $! will most likely not help you, see my first posting.
