Hi Jean,
You don't need to do all than manual work.
You need to "unlink a field" which will turn a field into regular text.
Here's the Word help file on this issue. To unlink all fields, select all
the text and then press control-shift-f9.

Change a field result to regular text           


 <javascript:AlterAllDivs('block');> Show AllShow All
 <javascript:AlterAllDivs('none');> Hide AllHide All

*       Click the field, and then press CTRL+SHIFT+F9. 

Note  Once you change a field result
<javascript:AppendPopup(this,'wodefFieldResult_1')>  (field results: Text or
graphics inserted in a document when Microsoft Word carries out a field's
instructions. When you print the document or hide field codes, the field
results replace the field codes.) to regular text, the information is static
and cannot be updated the way field results can. If you later want to update
the information, you must insert the field again.

Subject: [duxuser] outline numbering


I have a large Word document that is formatted with a lot of outline
structure. Example, every section and part is numbered using field codes,
and references throughout refer to other sections such as 2.13.8, 4.8.3,
etc. I've discovered that simple numbered lists import into DBT and preserve
the numbers. Is there any way to import an outline structure and also
preserve numbering? Otherwise, I guess it's a lot of manual number entry.
