In short, you don't.
There are some alternate methods you can use but the closest you can
come to what you were currently using is a Fill-in field:
{ FILLIN "Please type address" }
Note you need to use <Ctrl F9> to insert the field braces or use
Insert/Field to insert a Fill-in field. If you use Insert/Field to
insert the Fill-in field then press <Alt F9> to toggle the field
codes.
Additional Notes:
* If you using a Mail Merge then you need insert merge fields within
the Prompt portion of the Fill-in field so the user knows which merge
record they are on during the merge.
* Once you have created one field you can copy/paste it to other
locations in your document and make the necessary changes to the
prompt.
* Press <Tab Enter> to answer the prompt using the keyboard instead of
clicking "OK"
