Guest V Harris Posted August 9, 2007 Posted August 9, 2007 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.

Thanks! VH. 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. http://www.thornsoft.com
