I'm not at home but I think if you do "paste special" from the menu,
then "paste as unformatted text," it goes into the flow of the
document.

Along the same lines, where can I find a good set of simple flowchart symbols. I looked in a handful of places, I can't remember their names right now, I could not find a simple set (line drawings with no color). Unless, of course, I don't understand how to use the ones I did find, which is entirely possible.

"I don't know" is an answer.
"I don't know yet" is a better answer.
