I'd have tried out the demo in
http://www.jopendocument.org/start_text_2.html , excerpt for a few
problems this example now works ok with using the embedded template
test.ott.
When I'd tries to use an template I'd have made myself, no data is filled
in, and the file that is produced are still an template. test.ott are made
with OpenOffice 2.4, I'd think those problems are due to version conflicts
as the way input fields are threated may have been altered, and
jopedocument cannot handle it. I'd have been looking for OpenOffice 2.4 but
it looks like there are only current versions out on the net. It's just an
hypotesis cause I'd haven't tested it through, only with the test.ott
template.
I'd have made myself an mysql database with a Java front end to keep record
of adresses, and I'd like to start an new letter just by looking up an
address and klick new letter.
Is there anybody in the group who have done this or something alike?
Enclosing my test program: This is the version for my own template.

// Make a new document, and save it.
ODSingleXMLDocument doc = template.createDocument();

// Open the document with OpenOffice.org !

Happy coding! Brumle.
