how do you auto copy something in microsoft word?

moneytrinity

guys/girls would appreciate some help. scenario:

page 1 document has to have a name and address of person i want to write to on it. amongst other things
page 2 of document also has to have name and address of person i am writing to.

Is it possible that in word while i am typing the name and address on page 1, the same name and address is populated on page 2 without me having to type it all in again?

The word document will be used over and over again but with different names and addresses on it, so i was looking for some kind of formulae that would help me do the above but in microsoft.

Any help would be really appreciated as i can't figure out if it can be done.

Thank You:D

Have you tried a simple copy+paste? G

If you are using microsoft word. Open the help section and type in Insert Header. Follow the instructions. When you finish typing in the name address etc etc save your document where you can find it again. When you open it it will appear blank but if you look at the print preview your name address etc can be seen, have a play around and try it out. You can also insert the date so every time you open up the saved rtemplate you created a new date will appear. When you type and go into the next page the header and is automatically inserted..

Thank you peeps. Have tried what you said, don't think it is what i'm lookin for.

You see i want others to use the word document and they can type in name address on page 1 but i want them to not have to type in same thing again on page 2. you know like in excel when you just put c2=a2 (where c and a are cells) and excel just copies cell a2 with whatever is in c2.

will keep tryin

Maybe using the mail merge function may help you. You would just type the name and address into the file being used for the data and then print out the letter, and change it as you need
