Word help ticket: Create a shortcut to paste unformatted text into a document

Tags: html

Overview This timesaving trick will make it easier to leave unwanted formatting behind.

When you need to paste text into a document without bringing its formatting along, Word's Show Paste Options feature may suit you. Unfortunately, it's a little cumbersome to use, and earlier versions of Word don't include it. The Paste Special command offers another approach, but it, too, is less than efficient.

This graphical walk-through describes a speedy alternative: Just write a one-line macro that automatically pastes text without formatting. Then, create a keyboard shortcut or button to make the pasting process instantaneous.
