Copying large internet documents into word

This is probably more a question about internet explorer....

There is a very large document of 100s of pages on a website that I want to copy and paste into a word document.

I know on word you can press SHIFT+CTL+END to highlight an entire document but how do I do that on internet explorer. I know you can use the mouse to highlight the document which is fine for a couple of lines but not when text is equivalent to hundreds of pages!

Hope you can help!

Try edit - select all, edit copy, and paste into the new document.

Yes but that copies all the advertising and navigation buttons etc on the website around the document as well which I want to lose

choose paste special - select text only and edit out the rest of the text you do not want.

Word tip:

Move your cursor quickly to your last editing position

If you open an existing document in MS Word, the flashing cursor (insertion point) is automatically appears at the start of the text on the first page.

This can be frustrating when working on a long document with many pages.
Instead of having to scroll through the document to the location where you were last typing and clicking to move the flashing cursor, wouldn't it be great to get Word to pick up right where you left off?

The good news is, you can! Immediately after you open the document, hold down the Shift key and tap the F5 key.

Word will move the flashing cursor to the exact point where you left off last time you saved and closed the document - whether it was at the end of the document or some point in the middle.
