I am interested in what you say, Linda. A while back I added "Paste Special"
to my right-click menu in Word (I do not remember how I did it now, but I
may have followed instructions from Mousetrax). Later I found that I also
have "Paste Special" in my Excel right-click menu. I may be wrong, but I
don't remember it being there before, so are the right-click menus at least
in part something global throughout Office?
