copy/pasting from document to excel

I put up this post a few days ago, but still have not been able to solve
the problem. I am copying/pasting various parts of a large microsoft
document to specific cells of an excel spreadsheet (i'm using an apple
laptop). whenever i move the text over from the document to excel,
words that i have in bold or italicized get automatically returned back
to normal once they're in the cell. is there a way i can correct this?
i'd like the text to remain exactly the way it is on the document. a
previous reply suggested i try using a notepad, but i don't have that
option on my computer. thanks!

Bold and Italics seem to carry over from WORD to EXCEL on the PC
You might try formatting your cells as "TEXT" and then "Paste Special"
as TEXT.
Don't have a MAC so cannot do much more for you.
