I stripped my CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT files to the bare minimum (files and buffers, SMARTDRV.SYS and HIMEM.SYS in the former, prompt and path definition in the latter). When I try to copy character formatting with the mouse --- select text, point at text with desired formatting, press CTRL-SHIFT-click --- Winword copies most, but not all, of the character formatting attributes. For instance, sometimes it will copy font and styles (bolding, italics, etc), but not point size; other times, it copies point size and styles, but not font. Anyone else have this problem? Thanks.
