Hi All,

I'm writing to report problems with writeClipboard when you have an SPSS
running.
I use writeClipboard to move data between R and Excel for my excel tools.
Noticed, it transfers just a few first lines when I have SPSS opened in the
background sometimes. My colleagues reported the same behaviour on several
occasions. Closing SPSS solves the problem.
Just FYI. But I'm curious if someone else has the same problem.
Win 11
Different versions of R
Run R script with Rscript
Concurrent SPSS license
VPN on.

Regards,
Sergiy
