We are unable to get dropped text from a VB application into our Java
Application. The same code works fine for Microsoft outlook and microsoft word
applications. We are able to receive text from these application. But when we
try to get the data from a VB application we get the below exception while
calling getTransferData(dataFlavor) method of Transferable.
class java.io.IOException no native data was transfered caught while getting
Data

We get the text / plain data flavor for all teh three applications and try to
get data with this flavor, but only in case of VB applications we get the
problem.

Here is the stak trace -
data flavor 'text/plain; class=java.io.Reader; charset=Unicode' is selected.
Couldn't get transfer data: no native data was transfered
java.io.IOException- no native data was transfered
