Windows Clipboard Problems


The Windows Clipboard has a few shortfalls:

• Only one item stored at a time
• Each new copy replaces the last
• Clips are not remembered between sessions
• You can't easily preview data in the Windows Clipboard

Windows Clipboard Solutions <<<< recomendations? any any?

preferable features list could be:

set macros for saved: Ctrl v, plus 1, Ctrl v, pluse 2, ... or whatever macro that you want.

I guess I don't understand the problem. The clipboard is only a transitional step for me - I usually go from whatever program to the clipboard to OneNote. Screen captures, text, whatever I need to keep goes to OneNote; the clipboard is only a way to get it there. I have never considered using the clipboard as a clutter bin to hold random bits of info for an extended time.

I will try and make a simple example of what i am interested in, plus show a link of an available product.

If you know that you will enter the same user name, or data all day, instead of retyping the user name xxxxxxxxxccc@frdev.com /data 29Lv160-cvt / any string of syntax, or text; using a temporary, timed, or permanently stored clipboard retrievable, that will be selectable and, paste-able.

Here is one example, I wanted to know if any were good or liked.

I don't want to re-highlight and copy; just hit: Ctrl, + V, then my varaible key.

I only use OneNote also for storing random stuff, I also use SpringPad for online organizing of stuff.

Couldn't you use macros for this? (not sure how thought haven't used them in forever)

I think Windows 3.1 had this feature...

Try these apps - I think it's what you are looking for. I haven't tried any of them but you may find that one of them does what you need.
