Thanks. I am using Word 2007.

As a scenario example, a budget report. I have a cost field which is
blank
on my title page and I have a table on my third page where I have a
total
which is constantly changing. What can I do so that everytime the
total
changes on page 3 in the table the total automatically alters on the
first
page to reflect that change.

If you can help please reply, thanks.

The obvious choice is Find & Replace:-) but depending on what kind of
"change" you're talking about it may not be the most efficient method.
It
depends to a great extent on whether you mean change to the text,
change
to
the formatting, change to the location... or some combination as well
as
what the nature of the document.

More details will probably yield more suggestions - And don't neglect
to
mention what version of Word you're using.

I am relatively new to using Microsoft Word and I want to know if
there
is a
function which for when I make a chage to a specific word or title in
a
document that anywhere else that particular word or title is written
in
the
document will change aswell.

Can anyone help me with this? Either by telling me what this is
called
so I
can look it up in the help function or by giving me tips on how this

can be
done.-

When juggling with financial data like budgets, the usual source data
come from Excel (or any spreadsheet). My first choice would be to link
the data you want to display from that Excel file in Word, and linking
these fields to the source data (Copy/Paste Special/Paste as link) so
any change in Excel is reflected in the Word file automatically. The
disadvantage is that the Word file can quickly grow to xx MBs, although
in 2007 it might be more efficiently handled (I hv still 2003). HTH,
Henk
