copy paste chooses mostly the wrong style

[mats]

Hi,
when using copy and paste in word 08, the result is rarely exactly what I want. The best guess would be a 'paste and match style' command,
which is equivalent to Paste Special -> Unformatted Text. In word 08, I can't create any macros for that as before. Any idea to assign 'Paste Special -> Unformatted Text' to cmd V? thanks for your help, Matthias

Actually, there is a paste and match style command.

This link explains the various options, including paste and match style
and a non-script approach:

This variant solution makes the cursor come out at the end of the paste,
but only covers unformatted text.

There's the tools--experiment to see which works best for you.
