Try it this way:
1. In your header/footer, press Ctrl+F9. This will insert a pair of field
braces.
2. Type IF and a space.
3. Click on the "Insert Page Number" button to insert a { PAGE } field (you
may see a number displayed).
4. Type with spaces before and after.
5. Type 121 and a space.
6. Click the "Insert Page Number" button again to insert another PAGE field.
7. Press F9 to update the field.
You should have a page number on every page but 121. Note that 121 must be
the number that Word would print on that page if it printed it. That is, the
field will not work if the page is the 121st page in the document but is
also page 20 of section 5, with numbering restarted in each section, so that
20 is what Word would print if it printed a page number.

I still can't get this to work. I did just what you told me and I still
have
the page number.

Spaces can matter in calculation fields but I doubt it is the problem
with
this field.
Try typing
IF "Page" = "121" "" "Page"
Then select each Page without the quotation marks and press Ctrl-F9.
This
creates your two Page fields. Then select the entire thing and press
Ctrl-F9. This gives you the IF field. Then press F9 to update the field
and
change it into a page number.
