Hi Ansie,

hm...

in a word-document, there can be no unformatted text.
Each and every letter has a formatting.

What is the problem?

Sub PasteUnformatted
Selection.PasteSpecial DataType:=wdPasteText
End Sub

Works will all versions of Word from 97 onwards.

Did you try using the macro recorder to do this?
