FillIn or MergeField from VB

I'm trying to insert data from a recordset into Word fields.(not sure if
Fillin or MergeField would be best appropiate)

- How I'd like to use it?
I'd like to use the Field Name to retrieve from rstemp(Fields.Name) that
way I can use different templates with same functionality.

The template will determine the fields that would get populate it from the
rstemp

Any help would be appreciate it

I would be assigning the data to document variables and displaying it when
and where needed in the documents by inserting {DOCVARIABLE varname } fields
