the clipboard

[Caz]

Does anyone know how to view the contents of the
clipboard? I really need to see some text that I copied.
No, I can't just paste it in a word document because I
copied some other text after that. Please help!!!!!
THANKS.

Perform the following:

1. Right-click on your Desktop and select: NEW > SHORTCUT
2. In the Create Shortcut window, type in: CLIPBRD.EXE , and click "Next"
3. In the next window, type in: ClipBoard Viewer , and click "Finish"
4. A ClipBoard Viewer shortcut icon will appear on your Desktop.

Carey - Thanks for the reply. I followed your steps but
the clipboard only shows me the last bit of text that I
copied. Is there any way to see the text I copied a few
times back?
THANKS.

That's all the clipboard ever contains. When you "cut" or "copy"
something, the existing contents of the clipboard are replaced by the
new stuff.

Ctrl+cc (from within Word) should bring the Office Clipboard to the right of
your screen. It saves up to 24 items and isn't cleared until you manually
clear it or close all Office applications.
