It seems as if making the clipboard ring appear in the VS2008 toolbox is pretty elusive. Does anyone know how to turn this on ? Ctrl-Shift-V works fine, but I'd like to see what on the ring.
Text does indeed appear when you drag to the toolbar - which is useful, I guess. But it is not the same as the old clipboard ring toolbox tab that automatically had everything that you copied on to clipboard.

I see.. I never used this, I like the new behavior personally.

It was removed in Visual Studio 2005. I'm trying to find a source for this.

You should give Ditto a try. It saves everything you put in your clipboard into an sqlite database. A shortcut pops it up and shows the history of your clippings.
The nice thing is that you can instantly search in this window through all your clippings.
I set it up to remeber everything in my clipboard for 60 days and made a habit of copying everything that might be usefull. That way I can quickly find that particular SQL statement, i did last week. Just dont search for "select" ;-)
Try it for some days and you will be amazed. There is also a portable Version
