hi, I know it is an old post, but i am facing a very similar issue.

When trying to copy SQL formatted text from Azure, Eclipse... into MS Word (Office 365) it does keep the Target (Word) formatting.

So the SQL formatting gets lost:

I´ve followed as per suggestions:
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/control-the-formatting-when-you-paste-text-20156a41-520e-48a6-8680-fb9ce15bf3d6

But still "Paste Special" options still do not appear:

Any suggestion ?
