Default cross references

Is it possble to use a cross reference without protecting the document? If so
how?
Please Help I'm trying to create a document that can be edited while also
being able to enter a name once and have it populate multiple fields.

Default cross references

What Word version and OP?
I believe you can not add cross referencing when the document is protected.
Are you talking about Form Fields?
Have a look at:

Hope this helps.

Default cross references

Cross-references to bookmarks are a bit more difficult in unprotected
documents (that is, when not using form fields, which have built-in
bookmarks) because bookmarks can be rather fragile. But there are other
approaches; see http://gregmaxey.mvps.org/Repeating_Data.htm
