You can use a word template and fill it from VB, I have written an application which fills over 160 fields in a word template.

I will try to point you in the write direction. Code follows.

Dim WordDoc As New Word.Application

'   Open Word with your template
WordDoc.Documents.Add ( "YourTemplate.dot" )

With WordDoc.ActiveDocument
   .FormFields(YourField1).Result = "AString"
   .FormFields(YourField2).Result = AVariable
    
    etc

   .FormFields.Locked = True
   .PrintOut
End With

WordDoc.Quit
    

This uses form fields on the template which you have to name when creating the template. If the FormFields.Locked property is not set to true they can be overwritten with blanks on printing.

I gleaned most of the commands from the VBA help files on Word97 and a lot of trial and error testing.

If I can be of more assistance let me know.

Good luck.
