creating a word doc to write records to

Hi all.

I would like to get some records to be written to a word document using a
certain template and write it to one of the three textareas

1. area should be the address records
2. then another textarea should be 'activated where some general details
should go in
3. the actual body .....

but I am getting an error on just the first attempts

I am using office 2000

any suggestions and bits of code would be very helpful
