Clipboard won't paste text

I can't seem to get the clipboard to work correctly.
The function:
  if  Clipboard.HasFormat(CF_TEXT)  then
     Edit1.Text := Clipboard.AsText;
doesn't work.
But the function:
  if  Clipboard.HasFormat(CF_BITMAP)  then
      Bitmap.Assign(Clipboard);
does work.
What's wrong with the text function?
I'm using Delphi 4.
