I recall the with an entire document selected, Ctrl+Space will remove all
direct formatting (bold, underline, etc).
I cant find the keyboard shortcut to remove all formats, including all the
styles.

Thanks for any help

Have you tried Ctrl+Shift+N to remove paragraph formatting and returns all
formatting to Normal Style.

Ctrl+Q removes direct paragraph formatting (but not the style). Ctrl+Shift+N
applies Normal style. There is no built-in shortcut for Clear Formatting,
but you could assign one: Office Button | Word Options | Customize: Keyboard
shortcuts: Customize: All Commands: ClearAllFormatting.

If the Style Pane is opened, the top of the style list is Clear All (unless
you deliberately toggle it off in Style Options).

I'm not certian that I know what the problem is but it sounds like a problem
I had a day ago. In the tool bar there is an option that says, "Clear all
the formatting from the selection using only the plain text". It worked
fine for me after spending a lot of time trying to figure out what was going
on.
