Automatic paragraph numbering

I would like to "fix" the numbers while keeping them visible. So far I can
only do this by saving a Word .doc to .txt and then to .doc again.
Is there a way to do this within Word, keeping the original formatting and
footnotes?
 
If detailed instructions are needed:

Press Alt+F11 to display the Visual Basic Editor. Press Ctrl+G to
display the Immediate Window. Type

ActiveDocument.ConvertNumbersToText

and press Enter.

If your document has ListNum fields that you don't want to convert,
instead use:

ActiveDocument.ConvertNumbersToText wdNumberParagraph
