Search highlights copy to Word

I generated help and searched for a term. When I clicked on the topic, the search term was highlighted. I copy/pasted the topic from Robohelp to Word - and the highlighting stayed. Furthermore, I couldn't get rid of the highlighting by removing it with the Word highlighting feature. I ended up having to retype each instance of the highlighted term. Is this a bug?

    Thanks guys. The workaround solution is to just turn off the highlighting option in Robohelp. But the CTRL+spacebar trick worked too! Thanks!

    Possibly, please report it to Microsoft.

    In Word select the word and press CTRL and spacebar.

    As Peter reported, RoboHelp uses the Microsoft HTML Help Compiler to compile a CHM file. Therefore the fault is with Microsoft not Adobe.
