Default looking for VBA or HotDocs type of way to create short reusable documents

I think I may be unaware of a clear and simple solution to my problem. I am only at beginner level as far as VBA or HotDocs.

I have a number of documents I'd like to automate. These range from a page or 2 with about 6 "fields" to about 30 pages with maybe 20 "fields."

These are not just mailing list type fill-ins, but technical, detailed spaces and paragraphs. Each document that is created then becomes a template for a project folder. I would like to be able to open the fillable form then Save As to a particular folder, and then proceed to locate and fill in the blanks.



In the old days, I saw similar documents done with "stops." But that required typing, or pasting, the data at each stop.

If there is a way to make a list of the data that would go in each space, that would be great. If I could just type up a list of the data to be filled in, give each entry a name, and then have the program populate the document with the data list, this would be ideal.

Is there some copy-and-paste program code someone can post or steer me to that would give me start on this project?

All help greatly appreciated.
