    This is very platform specific, and even specific to the applications you want to run (such as which word editor).
    If you are under windows, google for DDE.

    You can solve the issue rather easy by providing your own editor, from within your own application.
    Then this is a trivial matter, and will be consistent over all Qt supported platforms.

    Do you write clean code? - if you are TDD'ing then maybe, if not, your not writing clean code.
