Pasting Unicode into Word problems

Hi Ron,

When I paste text in Word, a small clipboard symbol appears, floating  
next to the text. If you click on this symbol, you can choose Keep  
Text Only from a menu and get the correct unicode text.

Have you checked if there is a customization option available, which  
allows you to insert an additional menu item into the Edit menu?  
There may be a custom menu item Paste Unformatted Text, but I haven't  
checked this myself.

Best regards,

Mark Schonewille
