1. Save As MIF.
2. Bring MIF file into text editor (Word or WordPerfect will do) 
   and search-and-replace-all for your string.  Save as plain text.
3. Reload MIF file in Frame.

If you have the "sed" stream editor (a UNIX and GNUish tool)
available it's even easier and faster:

sed "s/XXXS //g" yourfile.mif >newfile.mif

Good luck!
