Hello, I am wondering if someone can help me create a keyboard shortcut for 'paste special -> matching destination formatting' into MS excel 2011. I realise this isn't the most ideal (not being a mac app), but it's what I have, and I have a lot of text to copy in. I am running Mavericks 10.9.5 on a 2010 Macbook Pro. I've tried various options that I've found on the net for previous versions of OSX, but none have worked for Mavericks, and I can't find any information on this that was posted after 2012. I am willing to experiment with a macro, but I have no experience with them so I don't really know what I'm doing.
