Hi Andy, not quite I don't think. But here's below what you have (copied
from JAWS18 Help>Using Windows with JAWS>Using the Clipboard":
"Using FSClipboard
FSClipboard extends the functionality of the Windows Clipboard. When you
use the Windows Copy (CTRL+C) or Cut (CTRL+X) commands to place text on
the Clipboard, it replaces any text already there. When using the
FSClipboard feature, text that you copy is added to any text that you
have previously copied to the Clipboard. This allows you to continue
adding text to the Clipboard until you are ready to paste it into a
document. You can only copy text with the FSClipboard feature.
To add text to the Clipboard, select it using the text selection
commands, and then press INSERT+WINDOWS Key+C. The text is appended to
the end of any text already on the Clipboard. To paste all the text that
you have placed on the Clipboard so far, use the Windows Paste command
(CTRL+V). The text is inserted into your document at the current
location of the cursor. Each block of text that you copied is separated
by a blank line.
Note: If you attempt to add the same selection of text to the Clipboard
more than once, the text is not added. This feature is intended to
reduce unintentional duplication.
All formatting is removed from text that you copy using the FSClipboard
feature. This can be useful in programs like Microsoft Word if you do
not want to include styles, numbering, and other formatting information
when you paste text into a document.
If you want to replace all of the text on the Clipboard with a new text
selection, use CTRL+C or CTRL+X instead of WINDOWS Key+C. JAWS asks if
you want to overwrite your previously saved items. Choose Yes to replace
all the text on the Clipboard with the new selection.
Viewing the Contents of the Clipboard
If text has been copied to the Clipboard, you can press the layered
keystroke INSERT+SPACEBAR, C to display the contents of the Clipboard in
the Results Viewer. The title of the Results Viewer window that contains
the Clipboard contents is called Clipboard Text.
For example, you could use CTRL+C to copy text to the Clipboard, then
use INSERT+WINDOWS Key+C to append text to the Clipboard from other
sources. Once you have added all of the text you want, press
INSERT+SPACEBAR followed by C to display the Clipboard contents in the
Results Viewer. At this point, you can choose any portion of the text in
the Results Viewer window and copy it to the clipboard. Once you do
this, the clipboard text is overwritten and the text previously
collected is no longer associated with the clipboard. However, the text
is still available in the Results Viewer, as long as that window stays
open. This means you can repeatedly copy any text to the clipboard and
paste it wherever you want.
You could also use CTRL+C to copy a large block of text to the
Clipboard, press INSERT+SPACEBAR, C to display it in the Results Viewer,
and then select and copy smaller blocks of text from the clipboard text
viewer to paste in different locations.
Note: When using CTRL+SHIFT+DOWN ARROW to select by paragraph, text that
was broken up into several paragraphs in the original document it was
copied from may only be considered one paragraph in the Clipboard Text
viewer. This is because appending text to the Clipboard may strip text
to a single paragraph. In most cases, paragraphs are indicated by two
blank lines between text. However, in applications like Microsoft Word,
a paragraph can begin where a style changes, such as going from a
heading to normal body text. These style changes are removed when using
INSERT+WINDOWS Key+C to append the selection to the Clipboard, which
results in only one paragraph."

Hi all.
Did I hear something some months back that JAWS has more than one clip-board available?
I mean, you can have 3 or 4 things in temporary memory in 3 or 4 clip-boards, or was I dreaming?
Very best wishes.
Andy.
