Deb,
I typically set the field that the data is being pasted into to be an
auto entered calculation and use the Remove Formatting function to
restore the pasted text to the field default. Just remember to set
the auto enter calculation to replace existing content.

I read that you could create a custom menu action (or are they
considered

Say you copied something from a web page that was in 14 pt.
Helvetica Red,
bold, you could design a custom menu function that would revert it
to the
field default - i.e. 10 pt, Verdana, Black, plain when pasting.
I know this can be done with a script for a specific field using
the Set
Field and the formatting commands, I've done that, but I'm
interested in a
command that would change the style in any field of my choosing on the
layout.
Any thoughts?
