Having Copy/Paste Text retain it's formatting?

Hey everyone, really need some help. I’m working for a client that needs me to put a lot of information into flash. He had someone do all the typing and all that in word, with formating and I went through and changed text colors where needed, and now when I’m trying to put it all into flash, it doesn’t take any formatting at all. No indents, none of the bold settings, and none of the [COLOR=Yellow]color[/COLOR] settings. I really can’t re-do all of the formatting, it would take ages and ages. There must be some way to get this formatting into flash from word (actually using a free program called bean, because i can’t even get a copy/paste from word to work at all) PLEASE HELP!
