Finding and setting Mergefields in docx

I have Word templates that contain multiple MERGEFIELDs. I would like to find them and set a value in order to generate a document from the template. How can I do this?

Hi Jason,

Many thanks for your response. I saw those examples already. But they are setting new Mergefields. I would like to find existing fields and replace them with actual data, for example: Look for "MERGEFIELD FIRST_NAME" -> find and replace with " John".
I don't understand from those examples how to do this.
