Exporting templates

[simoncpage]

Not sure if this is the right place for this?

Basically at the moment I have a number of templates documents setup. Where by if something is sent to someone in the database a button is click and the result is pasted in to a word file.

What I basically want to do is to be able to create word documents from filemaker and insert text from fields? is this possible? would mail merging need to be used? XML etc?? and can the same be done with excel?

Thanks
