Hi Michael, One thing to try is , 1. Copy the document to the clipboard. 2. Open MS Word, but don't paste the document yet. 3. Press alt + e for the edit menu. 4. Arrow down to Paste Special and press enter or just press the letter s, that will take you straight to Paste Special. 5. Arrow up or down to unformatted text and press enter. This will paste the document into MS Word in an unformatted text form.
I don't know if this is what you are looking for, but it does work in a lot of instances. I am running XP & office 2002 Home & Jaws 9 & 10. Hope this helps.

Is there a way to get Microsoft word to put it in paragraph form?
