Not that I know of. You can use a macro to paste unformatted text
(such a macro is posted in these newsgroups fairly often), or you can
select this from the Paste Options button.

That is correct. So, is there a way to make Word 2002 default to
pasting in the format of the receiving document instead of its
present default of pasting in the format of the original document?

I think you're thinking of the setting that allows you to control
the wrapping of pasted/inserted pictures. The only thing relevant
to text is whether or not the Paste Options button is shown. There
are some Smart Cut and Paste settings (the Settings... button opens
the Settings dialog), but the ones that deal with formatting have
to do with material pasted from Excel or PowerPoint.

I haven't got 2002 about to confirm the option, but in 2003 it was
a button at the bottom of the Edit Tab labeled Paste Options or
something like that.

I found that tab screen, but do not see where I can tell Word to
default the paste to what is on the recieving document.

Using Word 2002 in XP.
When I copy and paste text from one document into another, very
often it is pasted with the original doc font and formatting
rather than adopting that of the recipient document. There
appears an option button that allows me to then select that the
formatting be changed to that of the receiving doc, but it is
not the default, thereby forcing me to constantly have to
change it.
Is there a way to make the default that the pasted text adopts
the formatting of the document it is being pasted into?
