I've copied at long text I entered in an IE6 website intending to use it
later, but then forgot to paste before pressing Cntl+C again! Is there anyway
to get the text back?
I see in Office applications that you can access upto 24 previous cut &
pasted items during a session, but this does not appear to apply to IE6. I've
still got IE open and want to paste text into Outlook message. Is it in a
cached area or temp file?

Much appreciated in anyone can help, otherwise good feature to add to future
IE releases. Thanks.

Hi Muntypro,

You should find it in your History if you have previously visited the
site/url. Ctrl+H to display the History Pane, right click on the link in the
History pane, select "Properties" from the right-click context menu and copy
and paste the address from the link properties.

Regards.

There is no way to get the text back again in IE6.
IE6 does not have a clipboard enhancer and is unlikely to be a feature
in future releases.
There are many such programs available. I use ClipMate:
http://www.thornsoft.com/ but there are free ones available.

I also use Clipmate (still back on version 6). However, ClipMagic is
free to use. I trialed it before but each time had problems with it,
including: database corruption (losing clips), underscore character
getting blocked (eventually lost use of this character until ClipMagic
was unloaded). They've gone through a couple revisions since then so
maybe they fixed those problems. I have Clipmate which I like better so
there's been no need for me to permanently switch to ClipMagic.
"ClipMagic is free for non-commercial use only." You can use it at home
(but not for a home business), not at work.

www.clipmagic.com

Of course, these utilities will not help you retrieve information that
is not available in the standard Windows clipboard, so what you saved
before and stepped upon with a later clip or after rebooting Windows
means it is now lost forever.

Looks like, as usual, the OS could be a factor here too.
E.g. clipbrd.exe in XPsp3 comes up with the title "Clipbook Viewer"
but I have no way of making it into a "Clipbook". AFAICS it is just
a "clipboard viewer". I remember, at least with W3.1 <w>, that there
was a tool called ClipBook which would allow users to save more
than one clip at a time quite easily.

Hmm... I also have something called clipsrv.exe WTH does it do?...

(Run... services.msc)... Oh. There's a service called ClipBook.
Who knew? What does it do? Maybe it makes clipbrd work
the way Clipbook used to? <eg>

Hi Robert,

Clipsrv.exe is used to share clipboards across PC's.

I guessed that but as a consequence does it start making clipbrd's
Window menu more useful--for example, give a New window
command for it? Otherwise how do I create a *ClipBook*
(which will have multiple items in it) and why is the tool titled
"ClipBook Viewer"? Just letting an organization share all their
ClipBoards wouldn't be terribly useful, unless they could all be used
as *ClipBooks*, although I do see that doing that, e.g. having
one ClipBoard per user showing in the Window menu would make
that menu more necessary. It would just seem too much like an
incredible half feature if all the users weren't also allowed to create
their own ClipBooks. ; )

Maybe I'll try starting that service to see what happens...
