I am trying to create a word doc (2003) in which page one has a questionaire
whose answers populate fields throughout the remainder of the document --
similar to a mail merge, but using the document itself as the data source.

Create a fill-in form for the questionnaire.

forms_in_microsoft_word.htm
Then use cross references to place the same information throughout the rest
of the document:

Hope it helps!
