When text is cut, it is removed from its original location; when copied, the original is untouched. When copied or cut, text is placed in a temporary storage area known as the <strong> Clipboard </strong> . Up to <strong> 24 </strong> cut or copied items can be held on the <strong> Clipboard </strong> .</div><h4 id=tryit>Try it:</h4><div id=contentsteps><ol start=1><li><span> Open the document <strong> Planning </strong> . </span><li><span> Click the <strong> Clipboard </strong> dialog box launcher to the right of the <strong> Clipboard </strong> group name, <img alt class=inlinebodyimage height=15 src=content_images/dl40.001.png width=74> , on the <strong> Home </strong> tab to view the <strong> Clipboard Task Pane </strong> . </span><li><span> Because the <strong> Clipboard </strong> is shared between all <em> Office </em> applications, there may already be some items on it.
