automatically typing the same text in two text boxes

[Peter McCaul]

in ms word 2003, suppose you have two text boxes in a document, you want
whatever is typed in one to appear in the other automatically (or through a
macro), have any ideas on how to set it up?

Thanks for any help

One way would be to mark the first text box area as a bookmark and mark
the second text box area as a cross-reference to insert the text of the
first text box's bookmark. On a related point, are you sure you need
text boxes?

Hi Peter,

One simple soulution would be to write a one line code in the change event
of the first text box

textbox2.text=textbox1.text.

But why would you need such a thing? Just curions that's all
