I have Word 2003, using Windows XP.

I have noticed that when I put items on the clipboard, they don't show in
the order I put them on the clipboard, but rather, the items alphabetized
themselves as things are added to it. I really prefer that they go on -- and
stay on -- in the order I put them on. Any suggestions on how I can fix
this?

Thanks!

I've never encountered anything like what you're describing. Is it possible
that you have an add-in of some kind that's running interference and placing
the clipboard items in alphabetical order?

Can you describe what your suggesting in more detail? I'm not sure if this
is contributing to the problem I described or not. Is there something I can
look for in my set up, properties, etc. to see if what you're describing is
the culprit? Thanks.

Hi Diddakoi,

If you hold the ctrl key when starting Word it should enter Office safe mode. Do you get the same behavior when in safe mode? If
not, then there could be a 3rd party add in involved.
