Hi, Melita.

I believe this capability exists with Office products, as these programs 
allow for multiple clipboards. While the feature is accessible I admit I 
don't use it and, as it's been some time since I have played with this 
feature, I don't recall the keystrokes involved with appending items to 
the clipboard. However, screen readers do come with their own methods 
for doing this, whether it's JAWS, Window-eyes or NVDA. It may be better 
to use the screen reader's functions for appending material to the 
clipboard anyway, since the Office clipboard only works within Office 
apps. In other words, the feature works well when copying and pasting 
from one Word document to another or from Excel into Word but the 
commands won't work once you start going outside of Office programs.

On my blog, I wrote an article regarding this functionality. Perhaps it 
will be of some help.
