How to quickly open the ClipBook Viewer
 

When you use the Cut or Copy command on the Edit menu, the material you cut or copy is automatically copied to the Clipboard. The Clipboard is a temporary holding area for the items you've cut or copied. You can use the ClipBook Viewer to see the information that you've copied to the Clipboard.

The ClipBook Viewer isn't listed on the Start menu in Microsoft Windows XP, so if you want quick access to it, just create a shortcut on your desktop.

You can also store information permanently in your local ClipBook and share it with other users.

TIP:  To open the ClipBook Viewer

1.  Right Click on your Desktop, Point to New, then Click Shortcut.

2.  In the Location Field type:   %windir%\system32\clipbrd.exe

3.  Click Next.

4. Type a Name for the Shortcut.  Then Click Finish

5. Click Finish, your new shortcut appears.

HINT:  I would drag the Shortcut Icon into the Quick Launch area of the Taskbar so that I could access it at any time.
