Export your database to a text file. Backup, then delete all the
records in the database. Import the text file you exported earlier
and the text styles will be whatever is set for the field's styles.
Don't copy and paste. Put the page's selected text into an
AppleScript variable (as someone so kindly demonstrated recently)(if
your browser supports it).
tell application "Internet Explorer" to set selectedText to do script
"document.getSelection()"
and pass it to FileMaker in one of the usual ways.
