Default Word 2007. Automatically type

I have gone 'developer' -- 'controls' -- 'legacy forms' -- 'text form
field' to make up an application form for something and need people to fill
out this part
e.g.
Name: [text form field]

The thing is, I want the same information on two separate pages... how can I
make it so when they type in page 1 that it automatically appears in the same
text form field on page two

is there any way that this can happen? To save the person typing the same
thing more than once
