[stylist] Removing text boxes from a Word 2010 document while preserving the text in them

[Homme, James]

Hi Pranav,
Maybe it would suit your purposes to save the document in another format. Meanwhile, I'll try to get the answer for you.

Thanks.

Jim

Subject: [stylist] Removing text boxes from a Word 2010 document while preserving the text in them

Hi all,

I need to remove text boxes from a word document but leave the text that was
containedin said boxes. How do I do this? I have tried the following.
1. Pressed ctrl+shift_+o to get a listing of objects.
2. Selected a text box.

3. Hit shift+f10 and arrowed to keep text only.
4. Hit enter.

No success. The text boxes are still there.

Pranav
