Word – How to print out or copy merge fields

mail-mergemicrosoft-word-2010

I have very complicated mergefields in Word 2010, thus I would like to print out what I coded already to analyze it.

However, I cannot copy and paste the pure code, because it always converts to output. I neither found any option to print out the mergefields – NOT the result, but the original fields.

Example of code that I want to print or copy:
{ IF { MERGESEQ } = 1 "x" "y"}

How to do so?

I suppose this option will make the difference:

Go to File > Options and scroll down:

Field codes

With checkbox active, I get field codes "printed" to PDF output.
