Default How do I put a form field in a header?

I am creating a report that has a header on all pages but the first. I must
enter what type of report it is and the client's name. But when I enter the
header, I cannot place a form field in the areas I want. Is this possible

Form fields cannot be placed in headers or footers because these layers are
not accessible when the form is protected. If the data is entered elsewhere
in the form, you can use a REF field to repeat it in the header; see
