How do I paste using destination formatting as the default?

Rick Copeland

When I paste text into OneNote, it automatically keeps the source
formatting, although I have the option of changing it to destination
formatting. I'd like destination formatting to be the default--I NEVER want
source formatting. Is there a way to do this? In other Office applications,
I've created a macro to do a "paste special" and then tied that to a
keystroke combo, but I can't seem to do that in OneNote.

In fact, if anyone has advice as to how to do this for ALL Office
applications--so I don't need the special macro--I would appreciate it. In a
way, I'm surprised that the default it source formatting. I can't think of
too many instances where this would be beneficial. If I'm cutting and
pasting, it's because I want the content, not the formatting.

Thanks in advance,
Rick

.... ok, at this point, click in the little paste icon again, and then click
"Set as Default Paste". This should do the trick.
