Default How do I keep the cell colour fill when pasting in text?

Ben and Fst1

When copying data from an external source you get different choices with Paste
Special.

Unicode Text or Text from an email.

From Word you get a few other choices like paste as picture or word object, none
of them being Paste Values. That is only available within Excel.
