I don't think there is, but the good news is that you can make one by creating a macro. Either record the macro, doing the paste the way you want to, then assign it to a keyboard shortcut, or put the following into a new macro (assuming you want to paste without formatting): For MS Word 2010: Selection.PasteAndFormat (wdFormatPlainText) For MS Excel 2010: ActiveSheet.PasteSpecial Format:='Unicode Text', Link:=False, _ DisplayAsIcon:=False, NoHTMLFormatting:=True Again, once you've saved the Macro, you'll need to assign it to a keyboard shortcut (eg ctrl + m). Addition: MS Word 2002: Sub PastePlaintext() Selection.PasteSpecial Link:=False, DataType:=wdPasteText End Sub. I've just found out that in Word 2013 and Excel 2013 there is a quick way to access, from keyboard, all the ' Paste Special' options.

In the following examples it is just shown how to paste as text (without pasting the formats). Word 2013: After having copied something go where you want to paste it (without pasting the format).

CTRL+ V (it will temporarily paste the format too) then CTRL (push and release the control key) then T (the last T means 'keep text only'). Excel 2013: After having copied something go where you want to paste it (without pasting the format). CTRL+ V (it will temporarily paste the format too) then CTRL (push and release the control key) then V (the last V means 'paste Values').

Hello, I am wondering if someone can help me create a keyboard shortcut for 'paste special -> matching destination formatting' into MS excel 2011. Hack and slash games like dynasty warriors for mac. Version: 2008 Operating System: Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger) Processor: Intel I need to do a lot of copying from one data orientation to another and use a lot of repetitive copy, paste special, transpose.

It's important that the second CTRL key is released before typing the last letter. This method requires just 4 keyboard hits, no macros and no use of the mouse in a dialog window. For Word, changing the default settings (as shown above) seems like a good option if the settings match what you want. For Excel, however, I would suggest using a right click instead. There's a couple of significant problems with adding a macro. 1) It will be lost in new documents unless you modify the default template. 2) If you modify the default template and need to share your workbook, then the person getting the file will get a security warning.

Which will likely freak them out. The other keyboard options require a lot of keystrokes.

In addition, if you're pasting from a web page, then Excel and Word will take a long time converting the HTML. A right click will show the paste options, where you can select the plain text option. I wish there was a keyboard shortcut built in, but right click seems the best alternative to me. The function already exists, it just doesn't have a shortcut out of the box, but you can give it one. In Word 2007-2013 (maybe earlier, don't remember), you can bind the keyboard shortcut of your choice to commands. In Word 2013 this is in • File > Options > Customize Ribbon > then click 'Customize.' Button at bottom left labeled with 'Keyboard shortcuts:'.

• In Categories, select, 'All Commands'; • in Commands, select, 'PasteTextOnly'. How to take off read only in excel. • Click in the 'Press new shortcut key' textbox, then press the key combination that you want to use to do this command. • To bind the shortcut to the command (make it remember / save the new shortcut), click the 'Assign' button. If the key combo is in use, underneath the 'current keys' box, it tells you 'Currently assigned to: xyz', where xyz is the command that already uses this shortcut. Then you can decide whether or not you want to stick w/your first choice (the shortcut will now invoke PasteTextOnly and no longer invoke xyz) or try to come up with another key combo.
