Hi! I'm creating a legal document, and I want to be able to replace a person's name through out the document. In other words, every time the word NAME appears, I want to be able to replace it. Is that possible?

Thank you in advance!
 





Hi,

Tooth Company Freeze a Crowd! and
Many are Cold, but Few are Frozen![tongue][/sub]
 
Look at the help for the "ref field". That might do what you want.
 
What happens if the word NAME needs to appear in its own right? I thing I would be tempted to use a different (and not real) word to replace.
