Use a StyleRef field.
http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/S....htm#FormField will show you how.
I like this so much that I use it in my letterhead which is not a protected
form. It makes it much less likely that you will send something out with the
wrong person or date on the continuation page.

...
I am creating a template for use in my medical office. I want to have a
form
where I will fill in a patient's name in the regular text area of the
first
page of the document, but then want the same information in header of the
subsequent pages (pages 2 and onward). I named the text fields (LastName
and
FirstName) on the first page and then put {Ref LastName} and {Ref
FirstName}
in the header of the second page, but when I open the document I get error
messages in the header instead of the patients last and first names. What
am
I doing wrong? I hope someone can help.
