If you want to change the phrase "Make Cheques Payable to" you can do so
in the report options.  However if you want the change the object,
"COMPANY NAME" to be something *other* than your company name then no,
you cannot do this in the report options or style sheet..  You would
need to edit the actual report program (fancy-invoice.scm) to change the
code that outputs this section.  Right how it's hard-coded to output the
company name:

	  (if (opt-val "Display" "Payable to")
	      (let* ((name (kvp-frame-get-slot-path-gslist
			    slots (append gnc:*kvp-option-path*
					  (list gnc:*business-label*
						gnc:*company-name*))))
		     (name-str (opt-val "Display" "Payable to string")))
		(if (and name (> (string-length name) 0))
		(gnc:html-document-add-object!
		 document
		 (gnc:make-html-text
		  (string-append name-str  ":&nbsp;"
		  (string-expand name #\newline "<br>")))))))

You would need to change the value of 'name' here to be what you want
instead of the company name.
