I second this approach. Users can compose their own letters to their liking. One thing with MSWord, it wont allow you to specify the same bookmark in more than one place. For example, if there's a rqmt to reference [LASTNAME] more than once in a DOC, you need to use a bookmark naming/numbering scheme of sorts for repeated bookmarks. [LASTNAME1] [LASTNAME2]
