Default how do I fill table column with same text string

Insert the text in one cell. Select the cell and copy to the clipboard. Then
select the entire column and paste.

I have created a new column in a MS Word 2007 table. I want each row
of that column to contain the same text string ("BOOK"). I assume I
should be able to use Find & Replace to do this, but don't know what
value to give the Find portion so it will locate and change the empty
cells in that column. If Find & Replace is not the way to populate
the column with data, what tool will do the job?

Thanks!
