Or you could just download a free copy of "Ditto" and have a much better
clipboard not limited to just one clip at a time. You start it by
hitting control +.
ditto-cp.sourceforge.net <http://ditto-cp.sourceforge.net/>
Try it you'll like it. I got it from Kim Kommando's site and she test
everything for malware before listing it.
