  It does that a lot if you type it up in Word. I’ve tried, believe me.

  The problem is that some of the Word formatting isn’t compatible with some of the WordPress formatting. It’s easier, I find, to either do it live in the WordPress edit box OR type it in Notepad or some other plain text program, paste it in, and then add the formatting.

  Yes that works .. thanks

  As it does take a little more time, does any one know the HTML you can delete to get rid of the formating?? So that the text goes noraml

  Once again thanks

  BlogDesk is a free of charge download from the web and it’s optimized for blog systems including WordPress http://www.blogdesk.org/en/index.htm
  It’s very easy to use. You do not have to know how to use html. You simply use buttons to do the formatting with. BlogDesk then supplies the html and uploads what you have written to your blog. You also have a back-up copy in case something goes wrong although it never has for me and I’ve been using it for months.
