Mail merge with word template using complex field type

I'm using XML SDK 2.0 to mail merge a template document that uses complex field type. A sample is included below, it is a FORMTEXT field. The data from database will replace whole section starting from <w:fldChar w:fldCharType="begin"> to <w.fldChar w:fldCharType="end" />. Any recommandation/suggestion how to do it using SDK?

<w:r>

<w:fldChar w:fldCharType="begin">
<w:ffData>
<w:name w:val="Date_LongDate01" />
<w:enabled />
<w:calcOnExit w:val="0" />
<w:textInput>
<w:default w:val="{Date.Long Date}" />
</w:textInput>
</w:ffData>
</w:fldChar>
<w:instrText xml:space="preserve"> FORMTEXT </w:instrText>
<w:fldChar w:fldCharType="separate" />
<w:t>{Date.Long Date}</w:t>
<w:fldChar w:fldCharType="end" />

</w:r>

thanks

Hi Michael,

If you are still looking into manipulating DOC files, I left a comment here: openxmldeveloper.org/.../159011.aspx

By the way, WordWriter can do mail merge with DOCX files as well.
