You can use Ctrl+Alt+V to display the Paste Special dialog box.

Record a macro and assign it to a shortcut key of your choosing.

Word 2007 Short-Cut Question
My question regarding the macro is how do I make it "generic" so that it's
pasting what ever object I cut? When I try to record the macro from a blank sheet, the paste button is greyed out. What I don't what the macro to do is Paste Special / Picture the same object over and over again. I want it to Paste Special the last object on the clipboard. If this makes any sense.

Word 2007 Short-Cut Question
Terry:
Yes, I have a such a macro, revised in 2004 or thereabouts, although I have it assigned to a button not a shortcut. Here's the code Sub Pastegraphic() ' ' Pastegraphic Macro ' Macro recorded 01/26/00 ' Selection.PasteSpecial Link:=False, DataType:=wdPasteMetafilePicture, _ Placement:=wdInLine, DisplayAsIcon:=False Selection.Style = ActiveDocument.Styles("graphic") End Sub If you don't want to assign a style, comment out the line beginning "Selection.Style". The one I recorded for paste text is assigned to a shortcut. There is a problem with recording certain actions in W2007. It will not record the actions to delete tracked formatting changes, for example. (Yes, I know, no longer as necessary.) But the recorded macro in an attached W2003 (dot.) add- in runs just fine in W2007. Regards, PamC Terry Farrell wrote: Have you tested that method?

Word 2007 Short-Cut Question
First copy an image. Then turn on the macro recorder, and go to it. You need
to record the steps for pasting an image that is already in memory (the clipboard).

Word 2007 Short-Cut Question
I'm a macro recorder, not a macro writer. I can read them well enough to
figure out what they do but that's about it. Does your macro work on Word text? If not, perhaps you should record it again. I just tried mine on an excel sheet (I'm using W2007 right now), and it worked. So you could try using mine€”taking out the style line if you don't want that.

I'm glad it worked. It took a bit of detective work to figure out, since the
