[mso] Re: Problem with word paragraphs

============================
Please can someone suggest a fix for my paragraphs problem. I have a word
document of about 40 pages.  I have brought in some quotes from external
sources to enhance it for a project I am doing. Since having brought in the
outside text, down through parts of the document some paragraphs have both
black text on a black background and the fonts are different than what I am
using in the main document which is times new roman size 12.

I think it was the introduction of outside text pieces that seems to have
altered the document but can anyone suggest what I can do to fix this and
perhaps avoid it in the future.
============================


To fix, try this: click on the paragraph. Then, in the Word Styles, choose
"remove formatting" or "clear formatting".

To avoid, try this:
When copying from Word, Word, don't just paste, but instead, paste special,
unformatted. Or, if it is easier, paste the entire document you are copying
FROM into a Notepad document, then copy and paste from there into your Word
document.
