Default creating a report table

Hi,

I am to create a report after a script execution in VBScript and the report has to be in word format. The report has to be customer specific template/ format.
i have a few options
1. recreate the entire report using code (dont know how much will this be possible)
2. Use a predefined template with headers, footers other sections and then create 'fields of interest' like mailmerge and insert data
3. use the predefined template as above and insert table data.

- option 1 takes a lot of time and is almost impossible to re-create the report exactly.
- option 2 works but i am looking for a single document into which the data is inserted.

can anyone please suggest a way to over come the mailmerge problem (in my case). I understand that mailmerge is supposed to do what it is doing.
or any other suggestions for the report creation would be appreciated.

thanks
kannan.k
