Clipboard limit

Is there a limit to the amount of data (megabytes) that can be placed on the
Windows XP clipboard? My laptop has 1 GB of RAM.

The amount of data a that can be placed on the clipboard defends on the
amount of free memory available. Programs running shares the available memory
with the clipboard. Less programs running the more data that you can store on
the clipboard. To see the contents of your clipboard: Start > Run > type
clipbrd. To clear the clipboard: Edit menu > Delete or pres the Delete button
(X).

Even easier (I think): Search for clipbrd.exe. Probably in
C:\WINDOWS\system32. Right click, send to desktop. The clipboard (now
called Clipbook) is right there in front of you all the time.
