Thank you so much for your valuable time taken for this.
Actually the templates are not varying over time. They have only 3 fixed templates. Think of these as standard certificates for a school. And the data source is the same for all three, although I made it slightly flexible by loading data sources to a different drop down.
Only that they need to choose one out of three templates each time. So initially the admin can do a manual mail merge to generate these three templates and save them in a directory so that the user does not have to go though the process again.
It is for saving time and to reduce complexity for non IT users.
