Hello

I was wondering if there is a way of representing the same bookmark (or
field) in multiple places in a word document. I've designed a userform that
requires input from the user and places data in appropriate placeholders in a
document. For instance, suppose I want a particular phone number (let's say
180 -555-5000) to automatically be inserted into 7 different locations in a
document from data extracted from a userform. Must I create 7 different
bookmarks/fields in each place I want to see the number represented?  I know
Wordperfect 9 is capable of inserting the same bookmark with the same data in
multiple places so that you avoid creating a new bookmark for the same data.

Any thoughts? Thanks.

Ellen,

You create one bookmark to hold the data and then use REF fields where you
want the data to be repeated.  See:
