I tweaked some setting by accident, now when I copy from Excel and paste in
Outlook I loose the source formatting. It worked fine untill I tweaked the
wrong thing.

Help

Thanks
 
Next time you paste - choose the smart tag paste option and change the
default back to Keep Source Formatting. Or, inside your email message,
click the Office button, and select Editor Options. Then click the Advanced
tab and adjust your Cut, Copy and Paste settings:

Is there any way to actually restore the default settings for Word 07? I dont
know what i did to change mine but now my word wont display any pictures or
objects like equation objects. They just display blank boxes. The pictures
and objects are there when i go to print preview and want to to print but
they just wont display on the screen. Also there is a dotted line border
around my page when i open word.
How do i get rid of this and restore to my original settings?

thanks
 
Click the Office button, and then click Word Options. In the Advanced
category, make sure that "Show drawings and text boxes on screen" is
checked, and that "Show picture placeholders" is cleared. To hide the dotted
line, clear the "Show text boundaries" option. You'll find all of these
options under the "Show document content" heading. When you are done, click
OK.
