| Copy more than one thing to clipboard Many times I want to copy two or three things to the clipboard before I paste them. Of course, each time you copy to the clipboard, it overwrites the old contents. Is there a way to copy to the clipboard and have it add to what is there? -- Replace you know what by j to email |

For instance, I am frequently copying two or more links that I will paste into something else. It would be good if, say, Alt-C (instead of Ctrl-C) would append the text to what is in the clipboard rather than overwrite it. -- Replace you know what by j to email |

You can save them and even organize into a hierarchical list of folders. Very handy for storing responses to often asked questions in newsgroups or for looking up information. PowerPaste lets you paste multiple items just by repeatedly hitting Ctrl+V (each keypress pastes the next item in the list). |

| Re: Copy more than one thing to clipboard Jud, I don't get you! The Tiny clipstor program has a default of five buffers. you could have five different URLs - one in each of the buffers - if you want, and then it's only two-clicks each to retrieve and paste each into what you want. I've just tried 'appending' two URLs in a text document and it took a total of two journeys for the mouse over to the clipstor. I'm sure, with practice this program just might become invaluable to you. -- Cheers, Tim Meddick, Peckham, London.

| Re: Copy more than one thing to clipboard ClipMate: http://www.thornsoft.com/ It is not free as VangardLH suggests but it is well worth the money. I have used it for many years and wouldn't be without it. It will append as well as many other facilities. ....Alan -- Alan Edwards, MS MVP Windows - Internet Explorer http://dts-l.com/index.htm On Tue, 21 Apr 2009 20:35:10 -0400, in microsoft.public.windowsxp.general, Jud McCranie <youknowwhat.mccranie@comcast.net> wrote: >Many times I want to copy two or three things to the clipboard before >I paste them.
