Default Get the value of selected text (outside of Excel)?

Fellow programmers,

This one is driving me up a wall... Is it possible to get the value
of selected text on another program as the value of a textbox on a
userform? If so, how is this done? I've looked into the some API code
for GetWindowText and WM_GETTEXT but I have been very unsuccessful
very quickly. Any thoughts? I appreciate any feed back available.

Thank you in advance!
