Adding "Format Painter" to right-click menu
Hey:
Does anyone have a suggestion on how to add "format painter" to the right-click menu when I am editing a Word Document? It's frustrating to have to mouse up to the menubar and back down to the paragraph I want to format. Thanks. -- Regards, GeoDogger |

You can add this to the context menu the same way you add any other command,
but be aware that there are a *lot* of contexts you'll need to add it to (see http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customizat...oToToolbar.htm). What I find much more satisfactory is the keyboard shortcuts Ctrl+Shift+C and Ctrl+Shift+V to copy and paste formatting. These also have the advantage that once formatting is copied, it remains available for pasting until you copy a different format, unlike the Format Painter. -- Suzanne S.
