Link them together in what sense? If you want the data entered into a field to automatically appear in another location then you use a single form field with the setting "Calculate on Exit" turned on. Then add a cross-reference to that form field (using the bookmark cross-reference) where you want the data repeated.

You can't make a field that automatically flows the text which exceeds the line length into a different field.

yes i was looking to have text flow from one field to the next as you can with textboxes. i figured it was not possible but figured i'd ask just to be sure. Thank you for your response.
