How do I create auto updating fields?

DJ

I am creating a template that will reference the same data throughout
the document. I would like to insert a field in several places
throughout the document that will update automatically whenever I fill
out the first instance the field in the doc.

IE

Please input the company name $FIELD. The company name is $FIELD.

So if I put ABC in the first $FIELD reference the second will
automatically update.

Is this possible in Word?

elsewhere?
