Hi, we had a user field which has been removed during time. but some users has already filled it. **Is there anyway to remove or clear those entries from the database?**

the reason I want to remove it, is that It’s annoying some of our old users, as they can’t change the field anymore.

I’ve already tried to explain the problem here:
