clipboard operation GetDataObject fails

An Exaternal exception "The requested clipboard operation failed "
occurs sometimes when I try to get the content of the clipboard via
Clipboard.GetDataObject() method.It doesnt occur every time but it
comes once in a while. Any ideas how to cope with this? Thanks in
advance!

Are you sure there's something to get? Like selectedtext in a textbox or a
richtextbox?
