Hi James,

In Word don't use right click and paste, go to Edit>Paste Special
and select Unformatted Text and OK out.

Can you suggest a way to link a dynamic excel cell with word document.
I would like to update text in a word document on the basis of an excel
sheet cell.

With a Word document open and an Excel workbook open, select a cell or range in
Excel and Edit>Copy.

Switch to the Word Document and Edit>Paste Special>Paste Link.

You're done.

Any change in Excel will be reflected in Word.
