Default Replace all occurrences of one merge field with plain text

I have a very large Word 2007 mail merge doc with several dozen data fields, one of which is repeated over 300 times throughout the doc (it's a training guide, if you're curious). I'd like to replace that one field - all 300+ times - with plain text, just remove the field entirely and have a typed text string in its place. Can someone give me a push in the right direction? I can't quite figure out what to put in the "Find what" and "Replace with" boxes in the Find/Replace dialog. Is it even possible to "zap" fields in this manner using Find/Replace?



Thanks!
