I'm using Word 2003 and have a doc with text and a $ amount that appears in a number of places on the page that I need to update from time to time. Wondering if there is a way to update the amount in one place and it will automatically update everywhere else at the same time, a bit like Excel where you can use a formula to point a number of cells to a single cell value?

Thanks
Deutz

Hi,

I'm using Word 2003 and have a doc with text
and a $ amount that appears in a number of
places on the page that I need to update from
time to time.

you can use a bookmark for the first occurance (Insert | Bookmark). In
the other places use a cross-reference to this bookmark.
For your information: "Repeating Data"
