Can you add an option to paste something as plain ascii.

If I copy something on a web page, and want to paste it into a Myinfo document, often I want it as plain text. So I need to remove the the font size, colour, hyperlink etc.

Can you do this automatically? You have a Paste on the right click menu, so a Paste as text option there would be really useful.

Thanks

This is already possible in MyInfo. There are two ways to do it:

A) Edit > Paste Special > Destination Formatting or Unformatted Text

or

B) Place the Paste Plain or Paste Text menu item to your Edit menu or to your toolbar (Tools > Customize > Edit > drag one of these commands to the menu/toolbar).

You can also use the Shift+Ctrl+V to paste the text without formatting.
