Is there any way around > this? I'm not sure what version of Word you're using, but in Word v.X, I use the "Paste Special" command. I did assign the command the keyboard shortcut 'Command + Shift + V'. What it does is present me with a dialog where I can see which in which format is the text in the clipboard. When I want the copied text to follow the document attributes, I choose "Unformatted text". I haven't found a paste command that would paste the text unformatted directly. -Laurent. -- ======================================================================== Laurent Daudelin Developer, Multifamily, ESO, Fannie Mae mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Washington, DC, USA ************************ Usual disclaimers apply *********************** -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
