Can I copy and paste text from MS Word into Blackboard?
Yes, it’s possible to copy and paste from Word. However, MS Word brings in a lot of extraneous but unseen codes that MAY cause the text not to be accepted. If that happens, try this: Click on the HTML button on the textbox to open a separate HTML textbox. (If you don’t see an HTML button, there should be a little black triangle under the toolbar above the textbox. Click on it to display the second toolbar.) Paste your text into HTML screen and Submit. (Use Ctrl + V to paste.) Then submit the page.
