how to reset followed hyperlink back to default color?

The style Word applies to a hyperlink is the Hyperlink character style, which by default is underlined blue and turns purple for followed links. I want to create a PDF from my Word document with all hyperlinks showing as the default font color. I do not want to redefine the color of a followed hyperlink to that of the default un-followed link. I want to retain the ability to see a followed hyperlink as purple within the Word document. Thus I'd like to know how to reset a followed hyperlink back to the default underlined blue color.

Thanks for any advice.
Answer
Answer
Followed hyperlinks change from the Hyperlink character style to FollowedHyperlink only while the document is open, and saving a document with followed hyperlinks does not save their followed status. Thus, easiest thing is to close the document and reopen it.
