Some WYSIWYG editors claim to handle cut and paste from Word. See FCKeditor
2.2
I used to force all carriage return as paragraph tags.

Thanks all, we are in a situation where we deal with a lot of users
uploading documents, our clients then have to use them.
For some reason the Word Plugin in IE doesnt just straight download
the data, it breaks it up into 30kb packets and then has big time lag
between them (like 600ms from the US). This is way too slow,
particularly when you think that a word doc has the entire history of
the doc inside it (unwanted and unused info) and averages 1.5Mb on our
systems.
If you have to go through this everytime for 40 users, you are gonna
get pissed.
To top it all off it then hangs when closing the browser window.
Now - we have thought about forcing the download - in pronciple this
would be ok but would require retraining. And its not the best User
experience, so we figure that if we can convert the doc to HTML then
we alleviate the issue (and the unwanted data), if they need to see
the original then they can d/l right?
