Default copying format of selected text and pasting on existing text

Hi Luc,
Thanks for your reply but i seem to be having some difficulty in finding
this copy+paste format button (i'm assuming that this is one button?) in
Windows Vista. When i select Paste Special, the options provided relate to
pasting the words that were copied (with or without format). I must be
missing something...
Cheers
Paul

Pazz,
You can use the copy+paste format button on the standard toolbar (left of
the undo button). Select the formatted text, double click the button, paste
the format on selected text repeat as many times as you will, click on the
button again to stop the process.
Or you could create a style in the format and styles task pane, and apply
that on selected text.

I'm struggling to work out how to copy a format of selected text in Word
2007
and pasting the format (only) on existing text - all within a table. The
function is quite simple in Excel (ie. Paste Special) but i've never been
able to do it in Word and it's very time consuming to do it individually
if u
have a big table
Thanks
Paul
