Windows "Copy and Paste" question.
I know how to copy and paste a single item to Clipboard but how would I go about making a "list" of several items from say different documents or web pages into the same clipboard file prior to saving it as a file in itself? To be specific, my local newspaper is online and I'd like to copy the garage sales that I would be interested in on an itinerary. I'm using Win98SE BTW. Thanks in advance.

1. This isn't much of an answer ...
But, I usually open a Wordpad or Text document and then just paste everything into it as I go.

2. That sure is an answer.
The newer versions of Windows and Office have a "multiple item" clipboard where you can do several copies at once.

But your method is an excellent way of doing it, in fact that's what I do too - even with the new tools at my disposal.

3. Me too. (or three).
I use notepad to collect my cuts or copies.
