I am in the same situation as everyone one else that needs the formating for the field left as is when pasting form another application. I would much rather use the formatting that I have chosen for the field in that layout than it come over or at least have a flag in the Inspector that I can change for that field. Adding or changing trigger scripts for all of the fields in my DB's would be a catastrophic job for me. Having to press CRTL-Z or CRTL-SHIFT-V to keep the formatting out is a whole other issue as many of my users that have my compiled versions do not know this and don't need to learn new keystrokes because of an update to the software from FileMaker... After reading the comments above its clear that FileMaker has let this one fall through the cracks and its causing a lot of issues for users and developers. My suggestion would be to have an UPDATE to FileMaker namely the "Inspector" with the flag that "KEEPS" the pasted formatting or "USES" fields default formatting and have a utility that allows allows you to go and set the fields on a specific layout to what you need. This would be the best fix for all... GregR FMPro 12 Advanced
