Howdy, howdy,

Because we can't insert Form fields in the Header (because the Form
functions are "grayed out"), we put the same-titled, repetitive Form fields
on each page of a document, i.e., on each page of the document the same Form
fields appear in the same place for Aircraft Tail Number and Aircraft Serial
Number.

What I'd like to do is enter the tail number and serial number just once on
the first page and have the rest of the pages' tail number and
serial-numbered fields automatically have that information entered.

I imagine a macro could be written to do this, but I'd like to know if it
can be done "natively" without having to resort to writing a macro.

Thanks in advance for your reply!
