Automatic copying of text from 1 page to another in Word document
Hi,
What I want to do is have a Word document with more than 1 page. Is there a simple way I can get text to copy itself from the 1st page to subsequent pages without using cut and paste. At the moment I have the text in the header and that works, but it's not ideal. Many thanks -- Mifty |

Either a REF field or a STYLEREF field comes to mind. Depends on what the
original text is. Even so, you need to put these fields on the subsequent pages unless you put them in a continuation page header. -- Charles Kenyon Word New User FAQ & Web Directory: http://addbalance.com/word Intermediate User's Guide to Microsoft Word (supplemented version of Microsoft's Legal Users' Guide) http://addbalance.com/usersguide See also the MVP FAQ: http://www.mvps.org/word which is awesome! --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- This message is posted to a newsgroup.

Sounds like what I need. Document is used as template (not very
efficiently!) so not a problem putting on subsequent pages. What is a continuation page header? Sorry to be so dense!

A continuation page header is the header after the first page. If you do not
have the document set to have a different first page header, then it is simply the header. http://addbalance.com/usersguide/complex_documents.htm or sections.htm For more on the use of the fields, see http://gregmaxey.mvps.org/Repeating_Data.htm. -- Charles Kenyon Word New User FAQ & Web Directory: http://addbalance.com/word Intermediate User's Guide to Microsoft Word (supplemented version of Microsoft's Legal Users' Guide) http://addbalance.com/usersguide See also the MVP FAQ: http://www.mvps.org/word which is awesome! --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- This message is posted to a newsgroup.
