How to make one field equals another?

A

Angyl

In word 2003 I'm using bookmarked form fields and I want the Client Name to
be in two different places (two different fields), without the user having to
enter it twice.

So I've tried setting up the second one to =(ClientName) but that doesn't
work.

This has to have a simple solution, I just can't see it. Help?

Angyl,

You don't need a second formfield. Use a REF field.

Set your formfield to "calculate on exit." If the bookmark name of the
formfield is ClientName then just enter the REF field { ClientName } at
the second location. The { } is entered with CTRL+F9.
