Copy and Paste text and font formatting
Hi,
(1) When I try to paste text, the paste options icon appears. If I accidentally press enter, it will disappear. Is there a quick way (e.g. function key) to bring it back so that I can select my options? (2) I am glad that I have learned ctrl+shift+c and ctrl+shift+v for copy/paste font formatting. I would like to know if there is only **one** clipboard for both text and font formatting. I can use "edit" etc. to invoke the clipboard, right? Is there another way using keystrokes/function key etc.? Appreciate advice. |

It doesn't have a default keyboard shortcut (other than the Alt key combinations to select the menu first, I guess). You could assign it any one you like yourself, though (Tools | Customize, Keyboard, Edit ... PasteSpecial ...).

Copy and Paste text and font formatting
Hi,
(1) I still don't know how to bring back the edit options icon if I press enter accidentally. Pastespecial doesn't have the same choices. (2) If I do ctrl+shift+C, the text goes to the clipboard. When I click that item on the clipboard, I paste the *text* but not the *formatting font*. How can I copy the font formatting once and paste that repetitively? Can someone help please? Thank you.

Copy and Paste text and font formatting
It sounds as if either you're not pressing Shift hard enough or you've got
Ctrl+Shift+C assigned to EditCopy instead of CopyFormat. Formats should not be visible on the Office Clipboard, so what you're seeing is copied text. -- Suzanne S.
