This has probably been answered many times for newer versions of Word but I have not seen anything for Word 2000.

My default typeface in all Windows applications is Arial MT Lt. It is an adobe typeface.

Yet when I copy and paste from one Word document to another, the text shows up in Times Roman!

Is there a fix for this?

(Yes I know I've been living with it for 10 years but I am slow to anger)!
