Thanks for the help, but those directions are quite unspecific and have some
errors. Would I want to make a form for each time the company name is
inserted? The directions do not explain how a bookmark is used, and how they
relate to forms and cross references. It is all very confusing. As far as I
understand from the directions, you type the company name once, highlight it,
make it a bookmark, and somehow the bookmark should magically fill in the
forms. But when I specify in the form properties that it should use the
bookmark "company", you can only assign that bookmark name to one form field,
and then it doesn't even fill it in anyway. Is there any way you can make
this more clear? Maybe I'll just stick with find and replace.

My boss just gave me a task to fill in the XXXXXX's in a generic contract
with a compnaies name that it applied to. I immediatley pressed ctrl+h to
use find and replace, but he seems to think there is another, and better,
method to do this. Any suggestions? Thanks.
