I'm kind of new to using Word for business applications, but would like to
know if it is possible to create a form letter with variables instead of
values and have the actual values read from a spreadsheet, database, or xml
file?

I have to do monthly reports on the same data, but varying values
everymonth, and inputting data for 12 reports into one table would be easier
than opening each report and searching for the instances of each datum.

Any help would be most greatly appreciated. Thanks.

This sounds like mailmerge to me - though you may be able to achieve what
you want with an Access report.
