Default Turn off "Highlight Merge Fields" by default

Is there a way to NOT have the "Highlight Merge Fields" button engaged
when opening a document? It seems that by default in Office 2007, it
is engaged and when we use the Finish & Merge, and then click Print
Documents the fields printout highlighted. If we use Finish & Merge,
and then click Edit Individual Documents and then print we don't get
the highlighted on the printout.

I know there are simple ways to get around this, like using "Edit
Individual Documents" instead of printing directly, or making sure to
turn off the "Highlight Merge Fields" button, but I've got staff who
are all concerned with minimizing the amount of keystrokes or mouse
clicks that they need to make.

Thanks for any help.
