Hi Judy, Let's say that there were several emails pertaining to this thread that you would like to save. You would copy the info out of the 1st email then, you go to the next email & instead of copying you use the append to clipboard keystroke. You keep using the append feature until you have finished copying / editing the various emails & now you have several pieces of info on the clipboard that you can paste into an email, text file, or Word Doc & name it as you want for personal use. I use the append feature a lot, & I do mean a lot, when saving notes on many various subjects. I have an excellent filing system but, my retrieval ability, sucks! LOL, hahaha hahaha hahaha, LOL Take care. Mike This email was sent from my, iBarstool.

In my ten years or so of using the computer I have never heard of appending to the clipboard. My question is this, and I am asking not to be critical, but to be educated. For myself, if I have information to keep I will save it to a word document, or to the notepad, and then go back and add to it if I need to, and delte things as I need to by copying and pasting or selecting certain areas and deleting them. This has served me well. In what circumstances would I want to use the append to clipboard function where it would be better than what I am doing? Thanks in advance.
