Using Net Express 5.1, is there a way to copy the text of the COBOL code into Microsoft Office Word while maintaining the colors of the text from the program?

Using Net Express 5.1, is there a way to copy the text of the COBOL code into Microsoft Office Word while maintaining the colors of the text from the program?

This works in Visual COBOL as the Visual Studio copy to clipboard retains the formatting but it appears that the Net Express copy to clipboard only copies the actual text to the clipboard so it does not retain the formatting.

Your best bet is to do a screen print or use the Windows Snipping tool to copy the text in blocks and paste it into Word.
