Google Form to Document Merge to Pdf to Mail - google-apps-script

Question

I think my issue is in the e.values I am using along with the ('keyXXXXX', XXXXX); that I am using.
The original code I used was something I borrowed from TJ Houston's site. I am using it for an application process. I wrote the code following the process of using
var last_name = e.values [1]
and matching it with the
copyBody.replaceText('keyLastName', last_name);
It worked for most of the entries but failed on
var emergency_phone = e.values[23];
matched with
copyBody.replaceText('keyEmergencyContactPhone', emergency_phone);
On that form and code I had over 100 lines of Var and CopyBody matches. I created a simpler one to test, which fails as soon as you get to cphone.

when replacing multiple keys in a document you are quite right that the keys must be unique. Personally I bracket all keys with # symbols which works for me e.g. #key1# won't be confused with #key10#
