Default Don't wipe out the clipboard when starting WORD

I just lost about 5 minutes of typing because of the DUMB way WORD handles
the clipboard. I was keying in a SUGGESTION Norton about one of their DUMB
products (GHOST v9.0). After keying in their miniature suggestion box for 5
minutes I decided it would be better to create the SUGGESTION in WORD and
then either paste it into their box or find another way to get it to them. I
CUT the text that I had keyed in and then opened WORD to paste it into a new
document. You know the result. WORD thinks it knows more about clipboards
than XP so it wipes out whatever is on the clipboard and creates its own
clipboards. As a result I lost EVERYTHING that I had type. This isn't the
first time this BUG has bit me but I'd sure like to make it the last.
