Replacing Text string with html

I'm looking for the best way to replace text in a word doc with some HTML. For example, I have a Word doc with one or more instances of the text "InsertHtmlHere". I'd like to replace this with some HTML like "<b>Some Bolded Text</b>". 

The HTML will be more complex than this but this should give you the idea of what I'm trying to do.

Thanks

Thanks for this. Unfortunately, this doesn't do what I asked for. Perhaps I wasn't clear.Yes, the text is replaced but instead of seeing <b>Some Bolded Text</b> in the document, I want to see Some Bolded Text .
