Clear clipboard contents

How do I get to the windows task pane. I am using Excel XP, and through
toolbars I can show the clipboard, but that is up to where I could get.

Guys,

Thanks for the help. Can I accomplish the same thing that Gord pointed out
but via code. Trying what Gary suggested just doesn't show the clipboard but
data is being copied to it, which is one of my concerns. Memory is being
wasted and to much data being kept track off will slow down the software.
