This is similar to the previous post and I wonder if anyone can offer
any help. Our users fill out a letter template using text form
fields. The 'form' is not protected and they use the F11 key to move
thruogh the fields. I would like one the first field of the address
(name of recipient) to be repeated in the header which appears when/if
the letter goes to more than one page - so that the header on page 2
and subsquent contains the same name as in line 1 of the address. I
looked at other postings but the only thing mentioning headers is using
the styleref field and I don't really understand it!

1. Open the template file as a document (via File | Open). Create a
paragraph style for the name, and apply it only to the location where
the name should be typed.

2. Click Page Setup on the File menu. In the Page Setup dialog box,
click the Layout tab. Enable the "Different first page" option. Click
OK.

3. Insert a page break (temporarily, so that you can see the second
page of the template).

4. Display the header. Press Ctrl+F9 to insert field delimiters, {};
within these, type STYLEREF "name_of_style_here". In other words, you
now have: { STYLEREF "name_of_style_here" }. Press F9 to display the
field result.

5. Remove the page break.

6. Save the template file.
