Help with changing the value of {FORMTEXT} for every page using ma

Hi I am currently in need of assistance with a Word Marco.

I have a value entered on Text Form Field on each page of 60 in a document.

When i press Alt+F9, these text form fields display as {FORMTEXT}, when i
right click on these and go properties and see that the bookmark value is
Text1 on every {FORMTEXT} on every page in the document.

I was wondering how could i contruct a macro to change the value of
{FORMTEXT} so that it will enter a new value for {FORMTEXT} on every sheet in
the macro.

Ideally i would like a msgbox, or user form, to display asking me what i
want to change this number to.

The bookmark cannot be Text1 for every formfield in a document. Bookmarks
must be unique!
From your description you need to change all but the first formfield to REF
fields cross referenced to Text1. Then all you need to do is update the
formfield http://gregmaxey.mvps.org/Repeating_Data.htm
