unlink merged field

[Can't Unlink]

I need to unlink merge fields from an RTF document to
import into another application. I can unlink the merge
fields from the body of the document fine. I cannot get
the merge fields from the header to unlink. What
statement do I need to do that?

Thank you for any assistance you can offer.

Have you separately selected /each different/ header (e.g. start with
View|Header and Footer) and used ctrl-shift-F9 (as with the body text) ? If
so, and it did not work, what field types are not unlinked?

 

[Can't Unlink]

I am trying to do it through a macro and not
individually. I have to update several documents at a
time. I got a response on another site on fixing the
header. Now I just need to find out if I can copy a field
from the header into the body of the document. Is that
possible?
