Changing field contents to Hard Text

[Guest]

I have a Word 2000 document with a lot of INCLUDETEXT fields relating to
another document. I would like to change them to ‘hard text’. Does Word have
the equivalent of Excel’s ‘Paste Special - Values’ Or can you suggest any
other way of doing this?

Hi Linda
Try clicking in a field and press Control + Shift + F9.

You can unlink the fields. Select the fields (or the entire document
if you do not have other fields you wish to covert to text) and press
Ctrl + Shift + F9.
