The preceding worked. Thank you! > >I never understood what "Plain Text" does not among other things it >should keep the line breaks. I guess keeping line-breaks should be the >default... It's ridiculous that it's not the default, you're right. Thanks also to Norman Dunbar who suggested the same things. Thanks also to Hartmut Hasse and Stephan Witt for their suggestions, which I didn't try for lack of time once the Shift+Ctrl+v worked. I spent 2 hours trying to find a method last night, before figuring I'd be better off asking the list. Thanks for your suggestions!
