How to call some method when user ends highlighting text inside another application?

I want to call some method when user ends selecting/highlightin开发者_如何学Gog text inside another application:

OnUserEndsSelectionTextInAnotherApp(string selectedText)
{
    MessageBox.Show(selectedText);
}

Is there any similar method to OnUserEndsSelectionTextInAnotherApp in real world? The second application is completely different process, like web browser, text editor or pdf reader.

Thanks.
