To add to the usefulness of the above, I have included the Paste Icon on the Toolbar. (The icon is on the drop down of visible buttons so just highlight it there*) The drop down arrow gives a number of options including Unformatted text. The same icon on the tool bar also helps when using Calc. If you do a lot of 'copy and paste' work this is very useful and time saving. (* I am not sure now if I had to add it as an extra icon to the Visible list or whether it was there on that list all the time. I have been using it for so long that I do not remember. Even if you have to add it as an extra icon on the tool bar it is well worth doing) Hope this helps some members of the list. Jean
