Paste in "match destination format" macro code
 
Could anybody give me the macro code line to allow me to paste text in the
"match destination format"

In Word it looks like this:

Selection.PasteAndFormat (wdFormatPlainText)

but I can't find anything in Excel.

Thank's a lot in advance!

Paste in "match destination format" macro code
 
If you do Paste|special|values, then the formatting won't change.

Or you could paste the formula?

Or you could just assign the value?

range("a1").copy
range("B1").pastespecial paste:=xlpastevalues

or

range("b1").value = range("a1").value

or
range("B1").value = "my text here"

Thanks for trying to help. I used

ActiveCell.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteFormulas, Operation:=xlNone, _
SkipBlanks:=False, Transpose:=False
