From Access to Word

I'm new to programming in Access, even though I've used it for many years.
So, I do apologize for being so "basic", but is there a simple code I could
write (an event I'd like to assign to a command box) to have access retrieve
data from some fields and populate a Word file and display it (open the Word
doc, with the fields already merged)?

Let's say I have the fields "ID", "First", "Inidate" in a database called
"Client".
In my Word file, named "Letters", I'd like to see something like this:

"ID"

Dear "First":

[body of letter], since "inidate"

I'd appreciate any suggestions!
Thanks!

Sorry, I did find the 2 links provided. I got mixed up with another
postings that suggested that I worked within Word, using "merge", which was
the opposite of what I'm trying to accomplish.

Thanks for the suggestion.
