Auto inserting of text in other areas of the document

M

Marcus

I have a document template that is filled with text form
fields. When I enter information into one of them (i.e a
name) I want to automatically have it copy to an
identical field on the next page so I don't have to re-
type it.

I copied the original document (I didn't create it) and
pasted it onto page two removing the areas I don't need.
Now I want to get the field info from page one to insert
automatically into the same field in page two.

Grateful for direction or help.

Every form field has a built-in bookmark. For text form fields, these are
Text1, Text2, etc., but you can change them in the Form Field Options
dialog. Where you want the field contents repeated, insert a cross-reference
to the content of that bookmark.
