In Word2002 how do I copy text from a 'form field' to a 'header'

[Guest]

I am trying to automate a form template in Word 2002. On page 1 I have a text
form field in which data is entered by the form user. The objective is to
copy/transfer the data entered to the header on page 2 (new section).
(Note: Microsoft Article 212244 does not allow the data in a form field to a
header.)

The slickest way I know of is to use a StyleRef field.
