Trying to install module win32clipboard

I'm new to python and i'm trying to install win32clipboard to be able to use this code:

import win32clipboard
win32clipboard.OpenClipboard()
win32clipboard.SetClipboardText('testing 123')
win32clipboard.CloseClipboard()

# get clipboard data
win32clipboard.OpenClipboard()
data = win32clipboard.GetClipboardData()
win32clipboard.CloseClipboard()
print data
raw_input()

How do i exactly install the necessary module to be able to do so? I'm using python version 2.72.

This module is part of pywin32 module.

To install:

  1. Go to http://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/files/pywin32/
  2. Choose the latest build, e.g.: http://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/files/pywin32/Build%20219/
  3. Download the installer for your system, e.g.: pywin32-219.win-amd64-py2.7.exe
  4. Run the installer.
  5. Use the Python you've installed it for to run your win32clipboard script.
