how do i clear the clipboard?
Can someone help me please!
I am running word 2003 and i do alot of coping and pasting. Recently after the cope and paste action, the clipboard would not allow me copy a second item, it retains the first one even when i clear the clipboard, it would not go away but comes right back. To worsen the situation the clipboard started doing a screen capture by itself, such that when i open a blank page in word i find that there is something already on the clip board, if i paste this item it will be a screen capture of the blank page. Kindly help me stop this from going on further Cheers ken |

Most likely you have a problem with your Print Screen key - dirty or
something pressing on it. -- Enjoy, Tony "ken" wrote in message ... Can someone help me please! I am running word 2003 and i do alot of coping and pasting.

It should say "Print Screen" or "Prt Scr" or "Prt Scn" or "Prt Sc" - and
maybe also "Sys Req" or "Sys Rq" on it. Somewhere top right of your keyboard and, it may need unsticking or the keyboard may need cleaning. -- Enjoy, Tony "ken" wrote in message ...

Could it be that you are using the Office Clipboard in some way; when
activated, it does retain multiple copy operations. Could it also be that you are using Office 2000 and not 2003? Just a wild thought. ------------------------- "ken" wrote in message ...
