Slightly off topic, what is the command to remove all formatting from the material you copy to import?
On the Home ribbon bar, use Paste Special in the upper left. The keyboard shortcut is <Ctrl+Alt+V>.
If you want the option to strip all newlines and formatting from an entire snippet, click on the Tools/Options button for the snippet (<F9>), go to the Text Contents submenu, and select one of the options there.
