You can't really have both... but you can Paste Special as unformatted text
and save as text...

I would like to open Word in text mode. Basically so it saves files in
.txt
mode and copy-paste copies text instead of Word format. I would like to
create a short cut with command switches or something similar to open word
in this text format without loosing the default Word format of word. In
short, I'm trying to create a super notepad. I've searched, but am unable
to find a solution. Any suggestions and/or links are appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
Jay
