how to remove Word generated css styles

[lord harry]

I have been pasting tables from word into pages using FP
2003. All I want is a simple table with no formatting
that will adopt the styles set in my css file.
Unfortunately each cell has word-generated baggage when
pasted. Such as:

style="width: 411.0pt; border-left: medium none; border-
right: 1.0pt solid windowtext; border-top: 1.0pt solid
windowtext; border-bottom: 1.0pt solid windowtext;
padding-left: 5.4pt; padding-right: 5.4pt; padding-top:
0cm; padding-bottom: 0cm"

The paste using destination styles doesn't remove it, and
neither does the word html cleanup tool. How do I remove
this without complicated find and replace statements,
bearing in mind that some of the tables are very large
and hence I want to keep the code to a minimum?

Thanks in advance
