Clipboard Help

When using CTRL + C, I can copy selected text to the clipboard. But then I

need to select other text then, rather than REPLACE text in the clipboard, I

need to ADD that selected text to the clipboard. Is there a way to do this

in Windows - like is there a power user feature or something? If not, what

is a good utility that I can use like clipboard that will allow me to add

highlighted text. I do need something that will allow me to use a hotkey

combination (like CTRL + C) to copy and paste the text as there are thousands

of bits of information to extract from a document, so switching back and

forth between windows to copy then paste will be unnecessarily

time-consuming. Thanks! VH.

There are dozens or hundreds of clipboard "expanders", managers,

whatever you want to call them. Google for "clipboard manager".

I have been using Clipmate since 1993. It will do what you want to do.

You would use either the "power paste" or "glue" feature depending on

how you wanted to paste the collected clips.
