As title folks, I wish to copy some excel data from my VNC session to a local excel sheet. I was wondering if there are any wierd and wonderful programs that can help with this or is it impossible since a VNC session is just streaming to my PC.
 
What software?

Most support Clipboard synchronisation. I am not sure if it will copy over the Excel context properly though as usually you would only copy simple strings of data, not fully formatted application specific stuff.
 
Citrix. Please note I do not have control at the other end but just the local end where I am VNCing from.

I take it there is no 3rd party software which does this?
 
Citrix is not VNC.

It's terminal servicing.

Never really messed with Citrix clipboard sync although your admins should be able to look into your Citirx config.
 
Ok thanks for your feedback folks.
But just to confirm, there isnt some kind of 3rd party program which is smart enough to somehow ascertain that when using a copy command on client will trigger a copy of whatever is select onscreen and try to format it as close as possible locally?
