CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET Staff
Yes, CopyPaste does expand your clipboard to 100 entries, but its tricky interface and limited operability compromise its usefulness. To copy text, you press Ctrl C as usual, and then enter a number between 1 and 99. Who but the most mnemonically gifted will remember which number corresponds to which text clipping when the time comes to paste? A slight mercy is that you can access the clipboards directly from the Edit and right-click menus of many Windows programs. However, only 20 clipboards are displayed here, and it is not possible to group them. Worst of all, this feature is not available in Microsoft Office applications (where it would likely be most useful) as well as other recent Microsoft applications. The Clipboard Archive feature lets you store everything you copy in a special log file. This may be useful, for instance, when collecting information from the Web. Again, however, there is a caveat: The archive can't be accessed through the program interface. At least CopyPaste doesn't slow down the computer. With a better interface, the utility might be useful for a variety of users, but, as is, it's a mixed bag.Publisher's description
From Script Software :Magnify your clipboard with CopyPaste, a Windows application that adds 100 clipboards to your system. CopyPaste can remember all of them, even after a restart. The program is indispensable if you rely on the clipboard but find its capacity limiting.

Version: CopyPaste 3.1.1
Summary: It might barf once in a while, and it certainly doesn't work well with Office, but for cutting and pasting multiple objects from and to code/text editors, browsers, music editors, etc, there's nothing better. I wish there were.

Version: CopyPaste 3.1.1
"Probably the most useful program you can download."
Summary: Once youve used it you will wonder at how you ever got by without it.

Version: CopyPaste 3.1.1
"Doesn't Work In Visual Studio"
Pros: The concept is great... CTRL-C then assign a numeric slot. CTRL-V [number] to paste. Wish it would've worked in Visual Studio.
Cons: I'm a developer working in Microsoft Visual Studio. I hoped that CopyPaste 3.11 would work with VS, but it doesn't. Time to un-install and look some more.
