Microsoft Word 2008 for Mac - remove all hyperlinks in a table?

[shenzi]

Version: 2008 Operating System: Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) Processor: Intel Hello!
I'm using word 2008 with a table which I have populated with some wikipedia text.

Consequently some of the words are hyperlinked.

Now since it is a massive table, I'd rather not delete all these hyperlinks by hand.

Is there a method to select them and delete all the hyperlinked words but retain the words themselves

for example if the word says 'horse' in blue underlined hyperlink text, i would like to have it that the word 'horse' remains, but is no longer links to wikipedia's entry on horse

thank you kindly

The simplest if you aren't concerned about the other formatting;

Select & copy the table. Leave it selected while you go to Edit Paste
Special, pick Unformatted Text, then click OK.

The default keyboard shortcut of Command+6 (not the numeric keypad) will Unlink Fields and leave other formatting in place.
