Retrieving previous copied text
I copied text and pasted it. Then I copied and pasted more text. There were
fields missing and when I went back to fix it, it erased my document. When I tried to re-paste, it pasted the last item, not the previous. How do I retrieve the earlier pasted text? |

Provided the doc is still open, Undo back to before you cut/copied will
still work. -- Suzanne S.

It's probably gone for good unless you can locate it in a .tmp file maybe. Next time that happens, try to Ctrl-Z (Undo) your way back to the original document prior to the problem appearing.

The Clipboard might help you. It shows a bit of each item you copied in its
window and you can avoid pasting the wrong stuff. "copy and paste" copy and wrote in message ... I copied text and pasted it. Then I copied and pasted more text.
