OneNote and Outlook

B

Bill Huggins

My default font for Outlook and OneNote is Comic Sans MS. If I am creating a
mail in Outlook and I Alt-Tab over to OneNote and copy some text and Alt-Tab
back to Outlook and paste in the text, the text in Outlook changes to
NTRoman. I then put the cursor in some Comic Sans MS, click on the Format
Painting icon and wipe it through all the text to change it all to Comic Sans
MS. I can't find any Option menu item that deals with this. Any suggestions?

I tried Tech Support, but they flipped me the bird because I have had Office
2007 longer than 90 days. Sheesh!

When you paste the text into Outlook, look just to the bottom left of the
text. Do you see the paste tag? Click that and change to the one that says
to use the destination formatting. Does that work better?

Thanks Kathy. That worked. It does seem as though the default would be the
destination font.

Disregard my earlier complaint. I found a place in Outlook Options to set
the paste option to the destination font.
