Used to Know Access

I'm trying to fill out some forms with fields from a query. The forms are
built in MS Word. So far all I get is inserted lists into the form but the
fields are scattered throughout the form. While the basic form is generic, I
want to fill in certain information from the query (i.e., name, SSN, date of
birth, etc.) and these fields around scattered throughout the form. I was
certain I could do this but after 3 days of frustration I'm still batting
zero. Any help?

Are these bookmarks you're filling out? Then it's easy.

Say you have a form in Access showing the data you want... base your form on
the query.
Then you can put a button on your form that does something like

docWord.Bookmarks("FirstName") = me.Controls("txtFirstName")
