Hello and good morning,
again a question:
if I copy text from any website and then want to paste the text into Word, this function is not available. I have to make two windows, FF / IE and Word side by side and then drag the selected text over. I didn't need that before. I didn't change anything or do anything.
What's going on there?
Thank you for an answer.

Depending on where the text on your clipboard comes from, Word offers different options for formatting an inserted text passage. When copying from other programs, e.g. web pages from the browser, the original formatting is usually undesirable. You can make the necessary settings using the Word options:
- Open the "File" tab, then "Options". In the opened menu window ("Word Options") click on "Advanced".
- The advanced options are displayed. You can now select the desired settings under "Cut, Copy and Paste".
- In the "Paste from other programs" combo box, change the setting to "Use text only" (see screenshot). With the help of further combo boxes, you can also regulate the behavior when inserting within Word documents, if desired.
