Hi

I have an 80 pages InfoPath form, and I am doing a lot of copy and paste from external applications to that form at design time, it will be nice if there is the possibility to have the paste special that is in some of the Microsoft Office applications to InfoPath, like Microsoft Word, so I will be able to paste the text without the formatting.

Thank You

If you are pasting formatted text into, say, a rich text box, and you want
the formatting to be stripped when you paste, in absence of a "paste
special" i find it convenient to first paste into notepad, then into
InfoPath.

Thanks for the suggestion!

You might find it even more convenient to go to the Font task pane and use
Clear Formatting in the Styles list. You might find it even even more
convienient to use Ctrl+Space as a shortcut to remove all formatting from
selected text.
