I don't know how many times I would have loved to have been able to bring
up something that was copied just before I copied the last thing. Is it
possible to bring this data up or is it overwritten the second new data is
copied to the clipboard? Are there any programs that will store various
things in memory that we can access for the duration of our session?

Yes, Microsoft Office for instance can store the last 24 items you copied.

The Windows clipboard works exactly this way.

MS Office implements its own clipboard that keep track of the last 24
things.

The clipboard included in Windows only holds 1 clip. It has no history of
clips. You will need 3rd party software.

Clipmate (not free)
Clipmagic (free)

Thanks for the info and the recommendations. Good to know.

None of the other responses I've read mention the
fact that the Clipboard application lets you save
the current clipboard contents in a file of type
CLP. You can have as many of these files as you
want.

All the clipboard managers have their own database file (which you can use
their auto-backup feature or include in your regular backups).
