Don't know about Word but many applications have an Edit -> Paste And Match Style function which strips styling from the clipboard's contents during paste. Or has already been suggested, copy into BBedit (or TextWrangler), then copy from BBedit back into Word. Oooh! I know! Open Terminal.app. Type "cat > file.txt". Paste. Type ^C (control-C). Merge file.txt into your Word document. :-) -- David Kelly N4HHE, [email protected] ============================================================ Whom computers would destroy, they must first drive mad. -- This is the BBEdit Talk public discussion group.
