Scratch pad..

[ymarif]

When I used to us a Macintosh PC long back in the nineties, I found that
there is a scratch pad in the main menu under the apple sign, which we can
use as a note pad for keeping texts, pictures, such as letterhead logo,
detailed address, etc or anything which we need to use frequently in our
routine work, without opening the program (such as word, excel, etc.) and the
files where it is actually located. This note pad used to be in the shapes
of pages wherein you have to use one page for each items separately, so that
when you copy anything from there to use in your current document, you have
to go to that page and just copy it (means you cannot copy a portion from any
of its page.. i.e. each page will be used for each item)

I did not find any such facility in the Microsoft Windows PCs.

Hence, if anybody knows about such a facility in Windows, may please let me
know at (e-mail address removed) or (e-mail address removed).

Thanks so much.

Sounds very much like the Office clipboard to me.

Maybe check into OneNote, too.

Thanks a lot Echo S. But, the office clipboard has a limit of about 10 or 12
leafs and I think it clears once you switch off the system. (In our country
the system has to be switched off at the end of the office hours). And, the
scratch pad I am talking about is something of permanent nature.. I mean it
will stay there as long as you do not delet it.

Any help for anybody ...

Thanks.

You may save your "snippets" to a file, the Clipboard itself resides
only in memory, and will be flushed on any reboot. So you may search
Google for some utility to do this "clipboard saving" for you, as this
feature does not exist in Windows or Office natively.
