I am creating an automated letter and I'm trying to create a field in my
header to repeat the individuals last name from the address block. How do I
do this? Please note this is not a mail merge situation. I intend on typing
the address fresh everytime. I only want the last name of the individual to
be in the header of subsequent pages going forward.
 
Select the name and then format > style > new - character style. Give it a
name eg Surname and save it. Then apply that style to the surname. In the
header use a styleref field to recall the Surname style.

If your addresses are in Outlook, you may find the method of grabbing
addresses at http://www.gmayor.com/Macrobutton.htm useful.
