Pasted text uses built-in styles

[hmm]

I copied text from a web-page and pasted it into Word 2000. Instead of using
the same text formats as those used in the web page, Word used its bulit-in
styles. The fonts were not the same fonts used on the web page, and some
paragraphs were numbered (e.g., 4.1.1) where no numbering appeared in the web
document.

I should add that yesterday I copied all styles from a co-worker's document
into my Normal template; before then, I never had such a problem.

Can anyone tell me how to:

A. Keep the new styles in Normal, but force Word to paste using the web page
author's text formats.

B. Delete all styles and restore Microsoft's factory-suppied styles to my
Normal template.

Depends on which version of Word.

 

[hmm]

From the top line of "About Microsoft Word":

Word 2000 (9.0.3821 SR-1)

 

[TF]

From what I remember about W2000, you cannot do that. In later versions of
Word, you can choose to keep source formatting but not in W2000.
