As you cut or copy, Word can store the information you have cut or copied on the Clipboard in a hierarchy. Then each time you cut or copy, the data you just cut or copied moves to the top of the Clipboard hierarchy and the data previously at the top moves down one level. When you choose Paste, the item at the top of the hierarchy is the item Word pastes into your document. The Clipboard can store up to 24 items. You can paste any item on the Clipboard into your document by placing your cursor at the insertion point, displaying the Clipboard pane, and then clicking the item.
The Clipboard pane includes an Options button. You can click the Options button to set the Clipboard options described in the following table.
| Option | Description |
| Show Office Clipboard Automatically | Shows the Clipboard automatically when you copy items. |
| Show Office Clipboard When Ctrl+c Pressed Twice | Shows the Clipboard when you press Ctrl+c twice. |
| Collect Without Showing Office Clipboard | Copies to the Clipboard without displaying the Clipboard pane. |
