OK, I don't think my question is understood. I have Simple Notes and Text Expander on my phone and computer and understand there uses. What I want is the ability to copy some text to the clipboard on one area of the screen and move somewhere else and add to the previously copied text, then I want to paste it. Example: I copied your name from a mail message and your birthday from address book. Right now if your name was copied and then I copied your birthday the name would no longer be on the clipboard hinge the append to clipboard feature. I want to be able to copy from more than one place and just keep adding to the copied text and be able to paste all copied items at once. On Jan 6, 2010, at 12:00 AM, Esther wrote:
