Hello Cynthia,

You need to insert the bookmark ref field into your document where you want
the data to go.

Press Ctrl + F9. This puts in the { } brackets. Just type the name of your
bookmark within the brackets. Do this for every place you want to insert the
data. Once in Press Alt + F9. This toggles all your field codes to hidden
again.
