Default Trying to build templated Word doc with user-inputted variables that will be referenced within text

Hi all,

I'm looking for some support on designing a document where a user can enter in a variable and that variable will automatically be entered into the text of the document.

For example, say my document is a templated thank you note. I want to be able to have a user enter in a variable of RECIPIENT and CITY and DATE in order for the document to automatically place the inputted variable into defined spots in the document:

e.g.:

Dear [RECIPIENT],

Thank you for attending the Very Fancy Auction held in [CITY] on [DATE]. Blah blah blah. We hope you were able to enjoy your stay at the Hilton [CITY] and explore everything that [CITY] has to offer. It is contributors like you, [RECIPIENT], that allow our organization to prosper. Blah blah blah.

Is there a way to do this in Word?
