Extract data from clipboard attachment

I have users that want to read (extract) data from a fallible Word Document that has been attached (by clipboard) in a Metastorm 7.6 process.  I see that it is stored in BINARY.  Is there a way to do this?

You can save the attachment and open it.

 

In version 9 there is a ReadAttachment() function that returns the contents of an attachment. There was something similar in version 7, although I recall never being able to get any proper data from it, although that may have been fixed later.
