The above works well Greg, thanks. As you say, this only works with 'normal paste'. I need the above to work with a special paste. Is this possible?

I often copy text from pdf and paste into word. I want a single macro which can:
- do a 'MergeFormatting' paste into Word, and then
- have this pasted text automatically selected, and then
- I will add more to the macro, including a way to replace unwanted paragraphs with spaces (already described by others, and I already have this code).

Any help would be MUCH appreciated!
