We use a web app and users are expected to copy and paste from Office docs and other sources into it.

The problem is, formatting is also carried across, to the extent that text formatting tools in the web app don't do anything when applied.

Means data looks messy and inconsistent. I've seen there are some tools out there but third party tools are not permitted.

Any ideas? Running IE7/8

Cheers.
 
Thanks guys. Users are already resorting to pasting into notepad then copy & paste into IE. Not a welcomed suggestion!

I remember seeing some funky key combo which involves the spacebar which drops some but not all formatting. Will investigate the copy options in Word.
