Default How to 'freeze' mergefields so that only the values are left?

A client has sent me a manual that contains merged data ('Mergefields'), and
for some reason I cannot process the manual through my translation software.
I think the problem is that the mergefields are left as coded fields in the
Word doc.

?: Is there some easy way to 'freeze' the values that the client merged into
the Word doc, so that only text (and thus no codes) are left?

I can manually replace all mergefields with the required text, but it will
take me a lot of time ...

Appreciate any help!
/Peter
