Default Link Fields

Hi all

I have a word template of a form letter. In this letter the company name
appears multiple times. Is it possible for me to enter the company name in
the first location and have word automatically fill in the other locations?
I am using MS Work 2003 SP2 on a PC running Windows XP Pro.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Dave
