wine users - Mar 2007 - Windows Clipboard and WINE

I have a book cataloging program that I have used for several years and
I am extremely pleased with it.  It's one of the main reasons I still
use windows primarily.  I'm looking at running it under WINE and I am
having trouble with the registration of the license key.  The license 
key is coped to the Windows clipboard and the the program reads it from 
the clipboard.  When I try to register the key under WINE, the program 
tells me that the key cannot be found in the clipboard.  I'm assuming 
that when I copy the key under WINE, it is not really emulating the 
Windows clipboard but using it's own.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

What's the book cataloging program?  (Name, vendor, version?)

I've fixed one bug in the clipboard code in the past, and
I can easily imagine a few more lurking...
