And this both for paste= 's from Word and from fx a browser. Same deal with Excel and the way around that is to Paste Special, which gives you a multitude of options, one of which, if you're lucky, is unformatted text. It's funny how they turned such a common function as Ctrl+V or Shift+Insert into something that takes 4 mouse clicks. > Naah... Word is actually ok for what it does....
