Please can you tell me how to export a chat that went on during a 4 hour teams meeting? It is too long to copy and paste screen by screen and I need to be able to copy it into a word document. Control A doesn't work and neither does holding the mouse down and trying to copy it all.
Thanks.

You can paste the copied text as plain text. This way the emoticons won't show up.

Interestingly, emoticons do show up when pasting plain text into Notepad.
This also results in a lot of additional/unwanted information. Such as:
Profile picture of (User Name 1). -- (Part of a message)... by (User Name 1)
(User Name 1) Today at 10:15 AM
(Full Message)
If a user replies to another users message, it gets even more convoluted.
Also, if I Ctrl+A, Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V, I only get the visible slice of the message being copied - not the entire chat history.

still no proper way to capture long chats? It seems that copy/paste (in different browsers or app) doesn't work unless you like to work in a stone-age-way-of-working. Nice product MS!
