For copying from web page and pdf to Word 03 document, I use the Edit-Paste Special-Unformatted Text feature.
This can be troublesome if there're a lot of copying.
I have installed a little program from TechRepulic to make this job easier, but when re-installed my OS (XP prof) I've lost this little helper.
Can anyone please help me to locate this copy & paste program or other program for unformatted text.

... If you could give us a better clue, that might help.

But, there is a work around.

Simply paste everything into NotePad first, then copy and paste out of Notepad to Word. That will strip all formatting so you don't end up with a mess after copying from the web.

Note: I said NotePad, not WordPad.
