Macros in MS Word 2003

[Guest]

I am creating a letter template and have created a field that instructs the
user to type the Subject. I would like that same information to
automatically appear in the Header of the next page.

How do I set this up?

Use a StyleRef field. You can download a sampler for these from
http://addbalance.com/word/download.htm. See
http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/StyleRef.htm.

You may want to be using macrobutton fields for your prompts. This lets you
apply a style. See
http://www.addbalance.com/usersguide/fields.htm#MacroButton and
http://www.mvps.org/word/FAQs/TblsFldsFms/UsingMacroButton.htm for more
about macrobutton fields.


Take a look at: How to set up letterhead or some other document where you
want one header on the first page and a different header on other pages.
http://www.addbalance.com/word/headersfooters.htm This gives step-by-step
instructions. (It also has the following links)
