[V8i VBA] Drop text field to plain text?

$

I have a number of drawings with text fields using (linked to) a number of Model properties. Since we don't use fields here, I've been asked to convert them all to regular text.

I can do this manually if I need to, but I'd like to automate this if I can. I know how to scan for text & text node elements, but I don't know how to test for field data.
I'm also not sure how to Drop a field to plain text without the GUI - I know I can Use Drop Element with the setting "Application data" and that seems to work fine, but I'm drawing a blank on how to recreate that tool from commands or key-ins. Probably related to the fact that I haven't figured out what "text field data" would be in the VBA Help.

This probably is pretty easy, if someone can help point me in the right direction.
Thank you.
