Thanks for the info, but I'm not having any luck. I went to your site so I
would insert correctly, but must be missing something.
From Word, ALT+F8.
Macro box appears.
Macro Name (PasteUnfText)
Create (and the following appears)
Sub PasteUnfText()
'
' PasteUnfText Macro
' Macro created March 11, 2008 by Jan Gavin
'
End Sub
I highlighted the above and pasted the commands in your reply leaving me
with the following in the macro create box
Sub PasteUnfText()
On Error GoTo oops
Selection.PasteSpecial _
DataType:=wdPasteText, _
Placement:=wdInLine
End
oops:
Beep
End Sub
Save and return to Word
When perform a copy and then attempt to paste unformatted text using CRTL+.
nothing happens.
Thanks again for your help!

The macro I have attempted to create is Edit/Paste
Special/Unformatted Text.
Problem is.. that even though I have gone through the assign keyboard
CRTL+., recorded the macro (run macro Edit/PasteSpecial/Unformatted
Text - stop recording), when I go to use the command CRTL+. the font
formatting is being pasted into the document rather than the
"unformatted text."
Can anyone tell me what I might be doing wrong?
Thanks for the help!!
