How can I put placement holders in a word document?

[purdue]

How can I have some areas of my word document be able to fill in information
that changes with each customer? i.e. name, addres, phone number.

It is not clear from your description whether you are trying to create "form
letters" or a "fillable form."

For the first, you want a mail merge. See
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/MailMerge/CreateAMailMerge.htm to get started.

For the second, see
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customization/FillinTheBlanks.htm and especially
the forms tutorials by Dian Chapman that this article links to.
