Hi Warren,
Thanks. That will save a ton of work. I didn't know about that feature.

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
Show All
Hide All
a.. Click the field, and then press CTRL+SHIFT+F9.
Note Once you change a field result (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.
