Yet if I do the same thing from a web page, which contains the same info that was sent via an email, I don't get a pop-up.

Hadn't thought about that....

Pasting into the input box doesn't trigger anything.  So, it "works".

Pasting into the cell triggers the pop-up and if I click "OK" the data gets pasted in but the font, the font size, and even the format is altered.  Odd.
