Want to enter text in one place and have different text appear somewhere else.

K

kempermo

What I want to do is similar to repeating data, or populating fields,
but I don't want to populate fields with the same data I'm manually
entering.

For example, in a blank I want to enter "teacher," and a couple of
lines down will display "they educate children." Instead of teacher I
enter "postal worker," and a couple of lines down will display
"delivers the mail." In Excel I can do this with a simple IF THEN
statement, but I'm lost in word.

I appreciate the help!

Regards,

Mike
