Annoyingly, there doesn't seem an easy way to be able to paste text as plain text (i.e. without any formatting) into Microsoft Word and Excel using a keyboard shortcut. Can Keyboard Maestro help with this
I actually have a palette macro I use in Excel that offers that, amongst other hard-to-do things:
app-Excel palette Macros.kmmacros (82 KB)
If you didn't want the others, and/or not as a palette, you can move them out and tie each to a hot key and delete those you don't want.
This version is bound to Shift-Control-E. With text on the clipboard, I hit the hot key, then T, F, X, or V depending on what I want to paste.
