Default Can I convert documents I copy from the web into MS Word format?

When I highlight a web page and then copy it into Word, I get all the frames
and formatting which don't always work correctly and take up much too much
room. Does anyone know how to convert that material into a MS Word format?

Instead of just pasting, use Edit | Paste Special, choose "Unformatted
text," and then click OK. The text will assume the formatting at the
insertion point.
