Is there a keyboard sequence for pasting unformatted text?

[Guest]

I need to paste text unformatted into Word. Is there a keyboard key sequence
for doing this or can the default paste action perform an unformatted text
paste?

No, and no. But you can create a macro to paste as unformtted
text, and then assign the macro to a keyboard shortcut of your
choice. See

and http://www.gmayor.com/installing_macro.htm .

Not built in. I describe an easy macro solution here:

Or you could just as easily move the Paste Special command into your drop
down menu. Then you can just right-click and select unformatted text.

That's one way. Of course, I find it handy to have it assigned to a
keystroke, since I use it literally hundreds of times a day. To ensure that
Paste Special is available from every menu where Paste itself occurs, you
need to add it to something like 28 different popup menus.
