Yes, that works: you can actually catch the error. (I emptied the clipboard by deleting it in the clipboard viewer and restarting ID. That's on W2k--don't know how that works on a Mac.)

I thought another method would be to create an empty textframe, doing app.PasteInto() in that frame and checking if the frame has anything in it. If it doesn't, the clipboard must have been empty. But that doesn't work. Besides, your method is more elegant.
