I was bothered by the same thing Domenico mentioned here. I question Paul's
explanation, for two reasons: First, this didn't happen with Word 2001 and
Entourage 2001. I frequently cut and pasted from Word into an email and
didn't get the irritating extra carriage returns. Yet the Word 2001
paragraph markers also contain formatting, etc. Second, just to see what
would happen, I tried saving a Word document as "plain text" where it
shouldn�t *have* that formatting stuff in the paragraph markers. When I cut
stuff out of that document and pasted into an EvX document, I still got
those extra line breaks between paragraphs (particularly irritating for me
because the document I'm cutting and pasting is a schedule, with a hard
return after each line, so there are a lot of superfluous returns to delete
in the email). If this behavior is intentional, is there any way to avoid it
for a specific Word document?
