Forms question

I'm not new to Word, but I am new to creating forms (sorta). I'm using
MS Word 2003. I'm trying to create a template for a 200+ page document
that will be used for all of our customers. I want to have a field
called "Customer Name" and when I type it in one time, it fills in
everywhere in the document. I have tried naming all of the field
Bookmarks CustomerName, but that didn't seem to work. I have several
fields where I am going to want to link the data from that field
throughout thd document, not just the Customer name one.

Do I need to link this to an Access database or some other kind of
database? Could I create the customer info in an Excel spreadsheet and
have it populate the fields? Or am I going about this all wrong and I
should be creating a merge document and not a form?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks-
Sandi
