When I used Word 2003, I created a one-line macro for pasting unformatted text:
(Selection.PasteSpecial DataType:=wdPasteText),
...and I assigned it the keyboard shortcut "Ctrl+d". For me, this was truly an indispensible tool.
I now use Word 2007, and unfortunately my macro doesn't work. Word 2007 has a new feature that is supposed to make such a macro unnecessary. In the Word 2007 Advanced Options page, there are three options for pasting text.
a.. Keep Source Formatting
b.. Match Destination Formatting
c.. Keep Text Only
I've experimented with these settings, but I've found them to be too restrictive. So, I now find myself clicking "Past" on the Clipboard tab on the Home ribbon, and then "Paste Special" and then "Unformatted Text," which is cumbersome.
Can someone tell me how I can assign the unformatted paste functionality to keyboard shortcut "Ctrl+d"?
Thanks,
Chris Boorman.
