[mso] Re: Word 2003 - match destination formatting

By formatting, do you just mean font and font size? In my experience, 
autotext automatically takes on the formatting of the document you are in. I 
have not had it work any differently.

Smart tags can be used to specify Match Destination Formatting.

I dont know enough about macros to be able to answer that one.

For cut and paste, try using Paste Special and pasting as plain text.

Posted in the dark hours of the weekend originally so not had a reply so
far, hoping that just means it got missed.

I regularly use autotext entries and also macros to add blocks of text into
a variety of templates.  With the autotext entries the font formatting
always stays the same as when the entry was originally created, I would like
to be able to match the formatting to the template the text is going into.
Also on copying text into a template, either just by cut and paste or by use
of macros for blocks of text, is there any way to ensure that the text is
always formatted to "match destination formatting"?  I've tried a variety of
options in the Auto Correct and Auto Text settings but nothing seems to be
working!

Thanks in advance.
