    pasting colored text doesn't paster via paste special

    I am using paste special to copy text in a group of cells into a set of cells on another page.
    This happens except that colored text pastes as black and white text. What change(s) do I have to make to paste the text color as well?

    Thanks

    If you have under PASTE a choice to Keep Source Formatting, use that and the formatting will be pasted along with the values.
