Default paste wrap

I've read several threads on this topic, but they didn't help.

Situation: When I paste a selection from MSAccess into MSExcel, the result
always is a wrap (which is a rather extreme wrap when the Access field is
wide and the Excel column width is default).

My default in Excel is set to "no wrap".
After reading the threads, I discovered that if I use paste special, I can
say "text" and it won't bring in the formats (which for some reason seems to
include text wrapping, even though MSAccess doesn't even have that as a
visible option.)

But, I'm an old-style cut and paster ( ctrl+c ctrl+v )
Paste special involves a lot of mousing.

Is there any way to make the default paste use the default wrap setting?
