How do I automatically Input text in one area as I input in another?
Click to expand...

Use {REF} fields where you want the repeated text.

E.g: On page one, you have some text;
Assign a bookmark to that text (Insert > Bookmarks, let's call it "Text1");
Everywhere else you want the text bookmarked by Text1 to appear do:
CTRL-F9;
A pair of { } will appear;
Type REF Text1 between the curly braces;
Create all the REF fields you want.

When you are done do ALT-F9 twice to switch from field code view to regular
view.

Whenever you modify the text bookmarked by Text1, it will automatically
update everywhere you inserted a REF fields., except if you delete the
bookmark itself.

If you are using protected forms, use the text field name in the REF field.
