Linked Text Entry Fields

I am using Acrobat Professional 8.0, and am designing a form using LiveCycle Designer. How do I link two text entry fields so the information is the same in both spots (ie, the same name on two different pages so the user doesn't have to type it twice).
 
Thank you.

Hi ugbomad,

You can do this by using the Global Binding feature in LiveCycle Designer. Here is the text on how to use it from the Help document-

"To create a global field-
1. Add the required objects to the form design.
2. Give each object the same name.
3. Select one of the like named objects.
4. In the Object pallette, click the Binding tab. From the Default Binding list, select Global."

Hope that helps,

Dimitri
