Thanks Dean; I guess background color is a font attribute and not a text
effect, and really I should have researched it before answering.
What we had trouble with is strike-through, which is definitely a text
effect, so when we copy text that has been struck through, it isn't
struck through after the copy. I asked a Word MVP and there doesn't
seem to be an easy way around that particular problem.
