    I'm trying to paste a response from Word 2003 into a reply on one of the threads and am having a lot of problems. I used the "paste from word" button, and when I preview it, not only are most of my "tabs" and formatting gone, but also there is a lot of garbage on the top and bottom of my post.

    Here is what it looks like on the top:

    Normal 0 false false false MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 Yes DG! I would LOVE this feature! I...

    And on the bottom is this:

    /* Style Definitions */ table.MsoNormalTable {mso-style-name:"Table Normal"; mso-tstyle-rowband-size:0; mso-tstyle-colband-size:0; mso-style-noshow:yes; mso-style-parent:""; mso-padding-alt:0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt; mso-para-margin:0in; mso-para-margin-bottom:.0001pt; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:10.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman"; mso-ansi-language:#0400; mso-fareast-language:#0400; mso-bidi-language:#0400;}

    Is there something I'm not doing right, or some step I need to take to get it to work properly?

    Thanks,

    Michael

    by chance i'm also using word 2003 at home and found the *paste-from-word* dialog not giving me a reasonable result though it should remove especialy the ms-formatting-crap.

    and remember: only a CRAY can run an endless loop in just three seconds.

    Yeah, this is the only forum that gives me problems when I paste somethig from word into it. All the others work just fine.
