I have a report generator where I can select multiple contacts, and I was
wondering how to set it up so if the user wanted to mass mail something could
they open up a word template for the given records? Do I need to create a
word template and have the fields that I want to be populated like address
and what not? And if so how do you create a word template to handle that?

Word can use Access tables and queries for mail merge.

Tools/Letters and Mailings/Mail Merge Wizard

Create your template and then hook it up to your Access db. You might
want your report generator to create a table with the selected contact
information, and then hook the mail merge up to that.
