When I paste text between documents the formatting gets messed up
In Word for PC (2003 presently, also a problem in earlier versions), when I
paste text from one document to another, often the formatting changes automatically--different font, font size, bold/underline, etc., line spacing. Then I have to change all the settings back to the original manually which takes forever. I've been coping with this for years and am sick of it! |

I am using Word 2003 SP2 and the same thing is happening with most but not all of my documents. Have you been able to find an answer? I have tried many different things to attempt to solve this but nothing seems to work. Initially I was only having problems with automatic numbered lists, but now the font size has changed and all my styles are screwed up. Where can we get help for this? JV |
