WordPress 2.1 offers “vsual” editor and “code” editor tabs when you’re writing posts if you have the “Use the visual editor when writing” option enabled in your personal profile. What you don’t see is a few advanced options under the visual editor tab that are only visible if you press a key combination.

In Firefox on the PC press alt-shift-v, on the Mac press control+V and in Internet Explorer on the PC press alt-v to toggle the extra editor options. One of the options I’m pleased to see is the “paste from Word” button that helps you retain some basic formatting from Word documents you wish to paste into a WordPress post.
