This process ensures that the document is clean and ready for MailMerge without encountering issues related to leftover `MERGEFIELD`.

This KB article also answers the following questions:
- How can I delete `MERGEFIELD` fields but keep their content in the document?
- What is the correct approach to prepare a document for MailMerge in RadWordsProcessing?
- Is there a way to clean up `MERGEFIELD` from a document without affecting its content?

## Solution
To remove a `MERGEFIELD` while retaining their values, you can use the `RadFlowDocumentEditor`'s `DeleteContent` method. This approach involves deleting the field codes but leaving the field values as plain text in the document. Additionally, the [Find and Replace]({%slug radwordsprocessing-editing-find-and-replace%}) functionality provides a straightforward way to handle any leftover text from the fields.
