Default i pasted the web copied content in the word.

Am trying to copy the content from the web page, and paste it in the word
document.
My problem is, i could see some borders or lines in the word. I do not want
it.

Hi Sudhakar
When you copy web pages into a Word document they are actually displayed in
tables and nested tables which is why you are seeing borders around the text.
You should try just selecting the text you want from the Web Page rather
than selecting the whole page and it will work fine.
If you want the whole page then you will have to carry out multiple "Convert
to Text" operations until you remove all the tables.
Hope this helps.

A simpler way to do this is to use Edit - Paste special -
Unformatted Text.

sudhakar,

Note that pasting as unformatted text excludes any pictures on the web page,
but these can of course be copied separately.
