I often Copy and Paste information between different applications that
have different ways of formatting text. Say from MS Word to a page
layout program like Framemaker.or Excel and I do not want the original
formatting retained when I paste. I just want to paste plain text
into the target application .
I can do this by first pasting into Notepad, then copying the plain
text from Notepad, and pasting into my target application.
Is there a way to do this in XP or is there a utility somewhere that
does not require the intermediate step?
