Jim,

Just noted the following on Yankee Clipper's website:

"Saves past 200 text and RTF, 20 BMP and Metafile, and 200 URL clipboard
entries."

I was at or over the limit as I had entries clear back to Nov 2004. That
probably caused my problem.

BTW, I have been very happy with YCIII - I especially like the "shoot"
function. Also am most happy with another little freebie - Gadwin
PrintScreen which is just ducky for pulling any part, or all of a current
screen -- including jpg/bitmaps -- to YCIII.

Thanks again.
