Copy from IE, paste to Word, restyle in Word, maintain formatting

D

Working with a team that has created a web application (javascript with
oracle back end). One of its functions is to auto-generate a document based
on a pre-defined template, using a custom Style. We currently copy the text
(stored as HTML in Oracle) from IE and paste it into the Word document. It
pastes successfully with all formatting intact, but does not pick up the new
Style. When we change the Style, all of the formatting is lost.

Is it possible to copy text from IE into Word (2003), re-style in Word, and
retain the formatting? Please help.
