...how to open an attachment into the post?

It's rare that, when I want to cut/paste or copy/paste into a post I'm typing, I get a window with options that have nothing to do with those operations. It offers Save Page As and others, including something about Frame. Is there an alternate, sure-fire method of pasting into BP posts?

A good alternative would be the ability to open an attachment into the body instead of having it as a link.

It's a Word document that I would like to enter into my post. I did it some months ago, and can only surmise being surprised by the proper cut/copy/paste window appeared.

Tech Wiz here.

P.S. If it helps, here's the post I'm speaking of: www.bariatricpal.com/topic/362324-greater-new-york-bariatric-surgery-clothing-exchange-april-2016/

Copying and pasting from word to anywhere online that uses rich text or other online editors has always been an issue. We plan on upgrading this site as well as the text editor within the next 90 days or so. This should improve copying and pasting from word to bariatric pal.

Okey-doke. We'll see how it plays out, but I feel better knowing it isn't me.
