Single/Double spacing
I never, ever want any document to be double spaced that I work with as
I'm creating all my own documents. Is there any way that I can have a document automatically convert a double spaced layout to single spaced upon pasting into my Word 2007 program? Also I'd like the font to be converted as well. Presently I'm using Verdana and find it so easy to read as well as having great Bold/Non-Bold distinction. Also it would be great to convert that spacing modification that many people love to insert (before and after a point) in so many documents. Why do people want to waste vertical space I wonder? Don't waste paper!! |

On the Home tab, click Paste, and then click Paste Special; choose to paste
as "Unformatted Text"; this formats the pasted text according to the formatting at the insertion point. Note, however, that when you are pasting as unformatted text, you will *only* get the text. No graphics will be pasted. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Gary Gary" wrote in message news I never, ever want any document to be double spaced that I work with as I'm creating all my own documents.

Another perfect answer from Stefan! Thanks! You should work for
Microsoft! It worked like a charm.

Now if I want to use a kb shortcut for Paste Special would I have to use a
Macro? On the Home tab, click Paste, and then click Paste Special; choose to paste as "Unformatted Text"; this formats the pasted text according to the formatting at the insertion point. Note, however, that when you are pasting asunformatted text, you will *only* get the text. No graphics will be pasted. |

Yes, you'll need something like this:
Sub PasteUnformatted() On Error Resume Next Selection.PasteSpecial DataType:=wdPasteText End Sub If you need help installing the macro, see http://www.gmayor.com/installing_macro.htm. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Gary Gary" wrote in message news Now if I want to use a kb shortcut for Paste Special would I have to use a Macro?
