I wonder if it's an XP only thing.

 

I'll have a chance to test on Win7 machines tomorrow.

Works here!  Clipboard is still there after Replying and back to Word!

 

Vista and Office 2k7

Maybe it's a bug, not a feature.

OK, so  while back I was whin^H^H^H^Hmentioning about the Windows
clipboard behavior change. I've finally figured out one of the
combinations that reproduces it for me.

 

-WinXP + all SP's/fixes

-Office 2K7 + all SP's/fixes

 

1)      Compose document in Word. Type some junk and CTRL+C to
clipboard.

2)      Test by pasting a few times in to same document. Data remains on
clipboard for multiple pastes.

3)      Switch to Outlook. Reply to a message[1] and type a few things
in the message body (you don't have to actually send).

4)      Switch back to Word and paste. Nothing. Nada. Zip.

 

This is annoying and breaks long-standing proper clipboard behavior IMO.

 

I'll attempt on a couple of other machines/platforms as well.

Reply does.
