Srinivas,
Like I said, I have worked with reading word files, so I would do it sequentially.
For example, create a document, and then use the insertParagraph() method: I think
there is one for before and one for after the current paragraph so if you were
creating it from nothing, you would primarily use insertAfter(Paragraph). The letter
could be all hard-coded in the executable file, and the user inserts the data to be
filled.
Also if you have already created this template that you want to duplicate, you could
use the same idea as creating it from the beginning. I would read through the file
until I saw some marker, then insert the required text. I just wrote this code in the
email, so it is not tested at all:
for (int i=0; i<range.numParagraphs(); i++)
{
Paragraph p=range.getParagraph(i)
for (int j=0; j<p.numCharacterRuns(); j++)
{
CharacterRun CR=p.getCharacterRun(j);
if (CR.text().startsWith("RE:")
{
p.insertAfter(reply-name, CR.getProperties());
}
}
}
Obviously, you will have to do a bit more work than that. But I think what I'm trying
to say is that a word file is sequential. As far as I know you can't jut insert text
in a location on the document, but only a location relative to the rest of the text.
So the date would be getParagrpah(0) because it's the first thing. If you created the
template and are sure you will never change it, then you could use integers for
everything. i.e. getParagraph(10); insert("Address Here"); Where you use the number
10, instead of reading the document to find a marker.
Just a few ideas you might want to try to modify in your own way so that they apply to
your project. I hope they help some.

Hi Srinivas,
I am also new to POI, but I have worked exclusively with HWPF, so I might be able to
help a little bit. I have currently only worked with reading a Word file, but from the
classes it appears writing is in the same format.
What specifically do you mean by "Top left, top right, and bottom right position"? Are
we speaking of position on the main document page, or in headers and footers?
Thanks,
Tim Forbis
