Steve, I use a little program called PureText. It has an icon on the
Notification Area, that when clicked removes all formatting from the
clipboard.
You can also set up a hot key using PureText for pasting unformatted text.

And since the macro from the Office website should have worked as well,
maybe check if you assigned the keyboard shortcut correctly:
Type Ctrl + Alt + Num+ (where Num+ is the "+" key on the numeric keypad at
the right side of your keyboard).
Your cursor should turn into a cloverleaf ("control symbol").
CtrlAlt+ brings up the Customize Keyboard dialox box, cursor doesn't
change. Must be doing something wrong?
Now use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+V.
The dialog (ToolsCustomizeKeyboardShortcut) that appears should show the
macro you assigned to Ctrl+V ("PasteUnformattedText" if you used the
Office
website macro, "PasteUnfText" if you used Garfield-n-Odie's macro).
If the dialog shows "EditPaste", look again at the steps to assign
keyboard
shortcuts on the Office side or the links Garfield-n-Odie gave.
Regards,
Klaus

Using Word 2000. I want to change CTRL-V to default to unformatted
text. Tried the macro posted at
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/he...429611033.aspx
Customized the keyboard, but it does not appear to work - still
getting formatted text with CTRL-V.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
