Default Entering text in one textbox and have it automatically populate ot

I have a form in Word that has the same textbox near the top of each page. I
need to make it so that the end user can enter the text (ex: E09-003 or
E10-M3X) once and have it populate in the other text boxes automatically upon
exit (or entry.)

I thought about using the box in the header but the different information
surrounding the textbox precludes me using the header function.

Thanks,
Steven
