I am using the scrap Manager to communicate between two programs, more 
precisely to let one program leave some informations for the other.  I also
use the clipboard to get some informations to start the first program.

I use the following code at the end of the first program: (think C)

retval=LoadScrap();
retZero = ZeroScrap();
rtPut = PutScrap(lengthScrap,'TEXT',toScrap);
retval = UnloadScrap();t

If I look at the scrapbook after these calls, it contains exactly what
I expect to be in.  But, once the application is terminated
the scrapbook still contains what was in it before launching the application.

Can some kind soul let me know what I am doing wrong?

Thanks.
