formatted task comments

I’m wondering if there is a method to get better control of task comments.  Here’s my scenario: I add a comment to a task and paste text from outlook or word, and the source formatting is included.  What I want is the equivalent of “paste special/unformatted text” similar to word.  If I paste from word into word into wordpad, then into the comment, the text is unformatted. Am I missing something?

Thanks,
Tim

Hi Tim,  You didn’t mention why the comment was in Word first, but we’d recommend to paste into Notepad (or equivalent) then copy back from Notepad before pasting into Solve.  Word et al creates very messy HTML that could effect the entire workspace.  Running it through Notepad ensures there’s no code being unintentionally pasted into your comment.
