Problem summary

  • Version: PCOMM 5.9 CSD1 Japanese version + Windows NT/2000/XP
    Error Scenario:
    User with host code page 1390/1399 selected in PC5250 session
    gets error message PCSERR101 when trying to copy data from PCOMM
    session right after copied something from Microsoft Excel or
    Microsoft Word.
    

Problem conclusion

  • Because of PCOMM with host code page 1390/1399 session does not
    supports metafile and bitmap type of clipboard format which
    generated by Microsoft Excel or Microsoft Word so it will fail
    in those conditions.
    Solution:
    Need to exclude these two clipboard formats when pocessing copy
    data in 1390/1399 session.
    PCSEDIT.DLL has been changed to correct this error.
    .
    Fix included in PCOM 5.9.2 Refresh Pack
    Fix included in PCOM 6.0.5 Refresh Pack
