Default Automatically update content of a paragraph from earlier paragraph


Hi there,

Not sure if this is possible or not, but I have a word document that has
paragraphs that are repeated throughout the document. The paragraphs say the
exact same thing but as it stands now if I edit one paragraph I have to go
and update the other paragraphs manually so the content remains the same. For
example I have a list of recommendations on the fourth page of my document
and also on the last page of my document. The list of recommendations is
supposed to be identical, so if I make the change in one list I have to
manually change the other list as well. Therefore to save time and ensure
consistency I was wondering if it would be possible to link the second list
or paragraph with the first list or paragraph so if I make changes to the
first list/paragraph it automatically updates the second list/paragraph with
the changes.

Thanks in advance.
