In word, when I copy text, the original text is automatically bracketed. The
only way I can get rid of these brackets is to completely delete all the
words inbetween them. Any ideas?

Hi Kilroy,

I suspect the brackets you're seeing are OLE_LINK bookmark boundaries that
Word sometimes creates when you copy & paste text. You can delete these via
Insert|Bookmark|Delete.

You are VERY correct! This fix worked! I have been searching for over a
year for an answer.

Thankyou, Thankyou, Thankyou, Thankyou!
