Working with Content Controls

[mpm1488]

I'm an advanced Excel user now trying to get to grips with Word.

I have created a structured document using Content Controls as the only user
editable fields. I want to link some controls which contain common data. e.g.
when the user enters the client name in a control, all the client name
controls are updated.

I couldn't work out an easy way to do this so resorted to VBA. Then within
VBA, I couldn't work out how to reference a single content control so that I
could use ClickOnExit just for that control.

Please can anyone help me?

"Create Mapped Content Controls" and the end of that piece.

Superb! Couldn't have been more useful or comprehensive. I was about 75%
there on the standard VBA code but the new XML functionality looks terrific.

Many thanks.
