Hi

I am creating a simple form. The first section of the form contains a drop
down menu with customized options. Other parts of the document need to use
this information. Is there an easy way for this "duplicate" information to
automatically be populated when the drop down menu has been selected?

Cheers.

See http://gregmaxey.mvps.org/Repeating_Data.htm.

What you are talking about is what Word calls an "online form." For more
about online forms, follow the links at
http://addbalance.com/word/wordwebresources.htm#Forms (the above link was
there) or http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customizat...nTheBlanks.htm
especially Dian Chapman's series of articles.

Hope this helps,
