Please help me ! I want to link 2 Text Form Fields (maybe
through a macro?) so when data is entered in one of them
it automatically appears in the second.
Is this possible anybody ?
 
Richard,

When you create a form field within a document, it is also
creating a bookmark for that field. When you double-click
that field while in the editing mode, it returns the Text
form field options dialog. There you can modify the
default bookmark name to one of your choosing. Then,
select calculate on exit, so that any references to this
bookmark will be updated when the user exits the field.

Position your cursor where you want the cross reference to
appear, and insert a cross reference to this field using...

Insert | Cross Reference: select bookmark for reference
type, and then pick your bookmark, and click Insert.

Remember, you must lock the form to activate it.
