Default Word mailmerge question

Hi,

I'm trying to figure out how to best use word mailmerge from my
application. In my application there is a difference in the Display
name of a field and the fieldname in the database. I want the user to
be able to use the (user-friendly) displayname when creating the merge
template, but when I use the displayname as the fieldcode I will run
into problem when the user changes the displayname inside my
application. So is it possible to show the user the Displayname when he
is creating the template, but internaly in the mailmerge template to
use the dbfieldname in the fieldcode?

Jos.
