asked on 

How can I merge information from a table at the bottom of my Word Document?

I have the following Word Document with a table on a second page that defines various fields used within the document elsewhere?

I would like to have Word fill in Al Ames as the [Person] as one example.

I'm hoping to define a field.

How can I get Word to do that?

Thank you in advance.

David

I think Paul and I both recommended viable solutions - two different ways to approach the problem. Since David did not come back to comment and award points, I think points should be equally shared by Paul and myself.

Microsoft Word

Microsoft Word is a commercial document editing program that is part of the Microsoft Office suite. It features numerous text-editing tools for creating richly formatted documents, along with tools for the use of macros in Word documents. Word's native file formats are denoted either by a .doc or .docx file extension. Plugins permitting the Windows versions of Word to read and write formats it does not natively support, such as the OpenDocument format (ODF) are available. Word can import and display images in common bitmap formats such as JPG and GIF. It can also be used to create and display simple line-art.
