Copy and Paste issue from Excel to Outlook

D

dhstein

We recently migrated to a new MS Exchange Server and new desktops - still
running XP. I have an Excel document that we daily copy from and paste into
an Outlook email. The document is formatted a certain way in Excel and we
were able to paste it nicely into Outlook in the previous environment. In
the new environment the paste does not work - the formatting gets changed.
I've tried many things and none work. I've compared the settings in both
systems for both Excel and Outlook and they are the same. Is there some
server setting or desktop setting that someone is aware of that could be
causing this? Thanks for any help on this.

RTF (Paste Special - Formatted Text)

But no matter what I do, the format is "off" - does not maintain the Excel
format - which it did do in the previous environment. Thanks

Are you pasting into HTML or RTF formatted message?
