It's not clear what highlighting you mean or how you're breaking the link. Simply saving the mailmerge main document as a normal Word document is enough to break the link to the data source and leave the fields intact. Whether the recipient of your document would then see any field shading depends on how they have Word configured. See under File|options|Advanced>Show Document Content>Field shading.
