There may be a setting for this.  (In Oriface 2007, good luck finding it!)

A few hours ago I did a rather large copy-and-paste between Excel 
worksheets.  When I pasted, I got a popup saying the contents of my 
clipboard was "large", and would I like to clear the clip board after the 
paste.

Perhaps this can help you chase things down in the menus or the @#*& 
ribbon?
