I want to create a small table in the beginning of the
document. The information from two of those cells should
then get copied to other cells in three other tables in
the document automatically. In detail we have a document
with one page for each test case. The operator then has
to put an OK/Failed text in the table on each side.
Another person then has to make a table in the end
manually that shows the result from all the pages. It
would be great if the result from the different pages
would get copied automatically to the table in the end.

Does anyone know how to do this?

Best Regards Carl

Use {REF} fields where you want the repeated text.

E.g: On page one, you have some text;
Assign a bookmark to that text (Insert > Bookmarks, let's call it "Text1");
Everywhere else you want the text bookmarked by Text1 to appear do:
CTRL-F9;
A pair of { } will appear;
Type REF Text1 between the curly braces;
Create all the REF fields you want.

When you are done do ALT-F9 twice to switch from field code view to regular
view.

Salut!
