pre-Vista ----> Start > Programs > Accessories > Clipboard Viewer...or Start > Run > clipbrd.exe

Vista ----> http://www.karenware.com/progs/ptclpvue-setup.exe

I'm assuming that exe program works in Windows 7

If you're on a Mac I have no idea

yeah I mean I'd just Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V stuff into a notepad.exe document for when I need it

But from 3.0 to XP Windows actually included a super cool CLIPBOARD VIEWER

^try this:

Start > Run > "services.msc" (minus the quote marks)

Look for the Clipbook Viewer service and start it

honestly the easiest thing to do is open a blank document in MS Word, Notepad, etc, any simple word processing program

Paste what you need from web sources, etc into that word processor, and copy them from that to your actual paper you're writing
