Software to copy/paste multiple items.

Hi Experts,

I'm lately doing some work that constantly involves copy portions of text from word documents and pasting them on a web site.

Looking for a way to facilitate the process...

Wondering if someone is familiar with a software that helps in this matter.

For example in order not to have to keep switching from app to app, there should be a way to use X amount of buffers, where I can copy multiple things at once w/o having to paste them, then when pasting them it should auto paste them in order, first Cntrl+V will paste the first copied text then next Cntrl+V will paste the next and so forth...

Thanks

Hi,
Great!,
However it does seem to show things in order they were copied.
For example I tried copying the following.

INDICATOR

Does crib/bed have functioning side rails?

Is there adequate safety restraint being used on changing table, car seat, and highchair?

Are other children absent from the environment?

Are walkways free of clutter, cords, throw rugs and uneven surfaces?

High-risk diagnosis, i.e., developmentally delayed sensory impaired?

Safety gated present at top and bottom of stairways?

Is outdoor play equipment used safely?

Child is free of attached equipment, tubes, and catheters?

used contrl+c to copy line by line in order and used winkey+v to paste them, selected from top to bottom and then when I compared they were not in same order.

Also is it possible to setup something that I should be able to copy all those lines at once and when pasting them it should give each line separate?

(If this is complicate I can open separate Q for it).

Thanks

If you Google for clipboard tools for Windows, you're served with a choice of at least three popular ones, some free. Try those, they can surely fulfill your needs.

Never tried that one. We were looking at open source solutions: ditto and copyq

Hi McKnife,
Just another question if you dont mind..., how is it possible to have each copied text after pasting it being deleted or moved to the end of the list, as I find myself after copied a dozen or more items, having to scroll down (and needing to remember where I'm up to...) after each paste.
Thanks

Within Windows, I see no way.
As I am not the end user of those tools (I am well served with what windows offers), I am sorry, but I don't know whether any of those tools offer that, but I guess at least some do, since they have tons of options.
