Default Copy button caption

While using another data base program, I often toggle over to an excel
spreadsheet that has frequently used blurbs in separate cells. I would
then click on the appropriate cell, press Ctrl+C to copy the contents,
and toggle back to my database and paste the blurb. I figured out that
I could save a little effort by making a button with a macro that
copies the blurb with one click, but it is quite elaborate to set up:
type the blurb, name the range, create a macro that copies the range,
create the button, attach the macro. Then I thought "why not just have
buttons whose labels (captions) are the blurbs?!" So, can I create a
forms button whose "text" caption can be copied when clicked, and, if
so, how? Or, as I am thinking, will it need to be a Command button
with caption property - click the button and copy the caption.
