Converting Form Field Text
I have a table and within the cell I have text and form field text. How do I
convert the form field text to just be text? I'm importing this data into Access and whenever it imports it is not picking up the form field information. The form fields are randomly named so I can't specifically call the form field into the Access table by name so I thought if I could convert it from a form field that would solve my problem. |

Unprotect the document. Select the entire table. Press Ctrl+Shift+F9 (the Unlink command). -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit. |
