Event for pre-insert component

Does anyone know if there is an event that gets triggered when the 'insert component' command is triggered?  There's an 'addItemNotify' event but it is fired after the command is completed.  I'm trying to address a shortcoming of solidworks by copying the data on the clip board into memory, then adding it back to the clip board once the 'insert component' command is done.  I don't know why solidworks wipes the clipboard when this particular command is executed but it does....

Thanks
