TIP OF THE DAY
Paste Special Command
As you may have noticed, if you copy text from one Word document to another Word document, Word also copies the font, color, and size of the text as it appeared in the original document. If you want the pasted text to match the formatting you are using in the destination document, click on Edit, then click Paste Special, and then click on Unformatted Text. The text will then copy into your new document using the formatting of the text in that document, in other words, the copied text will lose the formatting it had in the original document and -- like a chameleon -- adopt the formatting of its new neighbors.
