Word Field Question

[coffee]

Off topic but I thought I would ask anyway...

I use Word to generate several documents regularly that have duplicate text in them (Company Name for example). I would like a way that I can fill in this information just once (say the first occurance) and have it automatically populate each place that the word(s) would go.

I know this is proberbly in Help, but without know what it is called I cannot find anything.

Any help is much appreciated,

/Coffee

You want to create custom properties (which you can find in Word help), and then insert fields that reference those properties.

The method changed significantly from Word 2003 to 2007 (the only version I have installed). If that's what you use, I can walk you through it.

I am using Office 2010. I searched "Custom properties" but couldn't find any information...any help would be appreciated.
