Default Macro for TEXT Box to Plain Text Conversion?

Fellow Forum Members,
I have a table containing a lot of data that was created using some
engineering application from Autodesk. The file has been converted to a CGM
format and this enables me to import it into WORD 2003 and take the table
apart. The problem is that the data for the table converts into a bunch of
objects. The text alone is made up of close to 400 individual text boxes. I
need help creating a macro that will select the text inside each text box and
then paste it as plain text on a page. Manually converting close to 400 text
boxes using a cut and paste operation is something I would like to avoid. I
would appreciate it if anyone out there can help me figure out how to best
convert 400 text boxes each containing text I need converted into Plain Text.
Thanks.
