title: Clipboard data set as CF_TEXT can't be retrieved correctly as CF_UNICODETEXT
body: <p>Our app has a bug in the non-unicode version; if we copy some Russian characters to the clipboard(using SetClipboardData(CF_TEXT)), and then paste them into notepad, they don't get pasted as the Russian characters but as the code page 1252 equivalents (e.g. Э becomes Ý).</p>
  
  <p>In trying to figure it out I made a little test app for pasting and it worked fine if I used GetClipboardData(CF_TEXT). if i use GetClipboardData(CF_UNICODETEXT) however, it has exactly the same issue as notepad.</p>
  
  <p>So I assume that notepad is just using CF_UNICODETEXT on the paste. According to the MS documentation I've read, the clipboard is supposed to be able to convert CF_TEXT to CF_UNICODE text. In fact on the page:</p>
  
  <p><a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms649013.aspx#_win32_Synthesized_Clipboard_Formats" rel="nofollow">http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms649013.aspx#_win32_Synthesized_Clipboard_Formats</a> </p>
  
  <p>it says "there is no advantage to placing the conversion format(s) on the clipboard."</p>
  
  <p>If that is true then i must (I hope) be making a simple mistake that is easily corrected.</p>
  
  <p>Can anyone help me out with a solution for this problem? 
  Thanks</p>
