Howdy, howdy,

Because we can't insert Form fields in the Header (because the Form
functions are "grayed out"), we put the same-titled, repetitive Form
fields on each page of a document, i.e., on each page of the document
the same Form fields appear in the same place for Aircraft Tail
Number and Aircraft Serial Number.

What I'd like to do is enter the tail number and serial number just
once on the first page and have the rest of the pages' tail number and
serial-numbered fields automatically have that information entered.

I imagine a macro could be written to do this, but I'd like to know
if it can be done "natively" without having to resort to writing a
macro.

Thanks in advance for your reply!
