Microsoft Outlook Clip Board

[dougiedoo]

Hello.........

MY PROBLEM IS THIS:

I am copying and pasting information from incoming email to CSV Excel data base.

Full Name/First Name/email address/date received/etc.

The problem is the clipboard keeps popping up and can't seem to find any way to disable it.

It is easier (for me) to just copy and paste.

It is a nuisance.........

I would appreciate any suggestions!

This information may be a slight bit different from Outlook 2003 because I'm running the Office 12 Beta...but here goes.

Click on Edit and choose Office Clipboard. The Clipboard Task Pane appears and there should be an "Options" button at the bottom (might be at the top with Office 2003). Click the Options button and you'll get several choices...the ones to disable it are:

- Show Office Clipboard Automatically

- Show Office Clipboard When Ctrl+C Pressed Twice

Thanks for the comeback.

I found the clipboard selection in the tools/options in both outlook and excel and even though I left the selection box unchecked the clipboard keeps coming up as I am copying and pasting. You would think as long as I hadn't checked the selection box that it wouldn't show up?? It always pops up when I am copying and pasting

For Office 2000, the following article will show you how to do this:
