Copy and paste code from editor

[lycheelove]

Hi I'm trying to copy and paste my code from SAS 9's Enhanced Editor to Word. I'm trying to retain the color-coded format but when I paste onto Word, all my formatting gets lost. Same thing with Wordpad. Any suggestions for this? Thank you so much 😀.

Works fine for me with WORD.  

Highlight lines. Press Ctrl-C.  Move to WORD, Press Ctrl-V.

What options in WORD do you see when select "Paste special"? Formatted Text (RTF) should keep the formatting. If your Word has been configured to use a different default, such as "Unformatted Text" or "Unformatted Unicode Text" it would have that behavior you describe but Paste Special should allow selecting the "Formatted Text (RTF)" option.

Thank you - that didn't really work. I think it's because I'm working off a remote server so there're some restrictions. I found a work around (paste onto OnDemand for Academics and then paste from there to Word).

Thank you again for all your help.😀
