saving to clipboard: how many "saves" can you store? and size chan

[Guest]

I am formatting a doc with many equations and math expressions. I was saving
to clipboard, but after 5 or 6 saves, the first saves disappeared. At one
point the boxes the saved items were in became a different size with the
contents becoming so small, they couldn't be read. How did that happen?

Which version of Word are we discussing?

You might want to look at using AutoText or AutoCorrect as a more permanent way
to "store" this kind of thing.

Please elucidate on how to use autotext or autocite as a permanent way to
store this kind of thing. Perhaps a link to an article. I have no point of
reference re autotext or autocorrect, except that when formatting a document
of hundreds of pages, I have autocorrect turned off so that I am in control
of all text.
