Default How do I remove all punctuations from a table in Word?

I have a table in Word that I am going to use as a database for merge
envelopes. Is there a way I can remove all of the punctuation used without
manually going through each line?

You could use Word Edit|Replace, e.g. to replace ",", ".", ";", ";"

Find what: [,.:;]
Replace with:

(don't put anything in the replace with box)

and check the Use Wildcards box - if you don't see it, click the More...
button first.
