I have a user that lassos a name and address from an existing 5250 screen
and pastes it into WORD to print a label. It keeps the text in vertical
alignment like it appears on the screen.

We are in the process of switching them to a web product. When I attempt the
copy and paste from the web page, it pastes the text concatenated all
together in one line.

I would like to be able to give the user the same ease of use that he has
with the 5250 copy and paste, but not sure how to do that.
