Retrieves the clipboard sequence number for the current window station
#include <Clipboard.au3>
_ClipBoard_GetSequenceNumber ( )
| Success: | The clipboard sequence number |
| Failure: | 0 |
The system keeps a serial number for the clipboard for each window station. This number is incremented when the contents of the clipboard change or the clipboard is emptied. You can track this value to determine if the clipboard contents have changed and optimize creating data objects. If clipboard rendering is delayed, the sequence number is not incremented until the changes are rendered.
