And, once again, you are talking about an issue that is more OS specific than
it is
OO or LO specific. You folks that use the Linux type OS's think you are the
only
people on earth, I suppose because both your OS and OO/LO are open source
software.
Therefore, you are better than, especially
be able to write a macro to do that, but I
don't
use macros enough to say you could do that or not.

John, what OS are you using?
For me, Ctrl+V is Paste only, and does not bring up any list and pastes
everything.
In Windows, no list is brought up where you can delete any ticks and just
leave
what you want. By using Ctrl+SHIFT+V I get Paste Special, and that brings up a
