Microsoft products (Word, Excel) tend to be non-conformant to the Mac 
conventions.  To overcome that, I set up a QS trigger bound to 
"Shift-Cmd-C".  The trigger does the following:

    Run Shellscript   (I use a different variant, but on vanilla QS, I 
think that this is the command)
    pbpaste | bcopy

Then, my workflow is "Cmd-C" to copy the data, and when I know I only need 
the raw data, I then put my pinky down on the shift key and press it again 
so that I get my Shift-Cmd-C.

It's a pretty fast workflow for me.

HTH,
-Mike
