MS Word Make includetext field into straight text

0

1

simple question. I've used the includetext field in an MS Word text. How can I convert that into just straight text, not embedded text? Word is wetting its pants in fear when I try to do a straight copy-and-paste over the includetext field by erasing or imposing formatting or fonts from one doc or another. I just want to convert that text, as it's formatted, into straight text. Any ideas?

Never mind, everyone. The trick is Ctrl+Shift+F9.

sigh Search high and low on Google for an answer, find nothing. Post it here, give Google one more shot, and there's your answer.
