Replacement string sending to word too long...

I have a word template that has several fields replaced before being sent out. This is done using the search and replace functions:

WITH oRange.Find
.Replacement.Text = ALLTRIM(outfile.spec_inst)
lFound = .Execute(,,,,,,,1,,,wdReplaceOne)
ENDWITH

This works fine for all my replacement fields. But this specific one is a memo field, and I guess someone finally filled it in past the string limit. I am getting: OLE lDispatch exception code from Microsoft Word: String parameter too long.

What I am looking for is a work around or fix. So far I have found nothing besides going to a mail merge (which at this point I'm not sure I want to do). Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Kevin
