Inserting Values from a table to text lines within the same document

Hello!
I'm currently working on a template for a survey report. The first page will contain general information about the survey (port of discharge, port of arrival, departure and arrival dates etc.) which will be repeated throughout the text in the report. I have already created the general body of the text. I now wish to have the values added in the table to be populated within the text as the table is being filled.

For example:

If the General Information table contains
Port of Loading : Chile [port1]
Port of Discharge : Singapore [port2]
Discharge date: 21/01/2021 [date]

then I'd like the values "Chile" and "Singapore" to be populated in the below text as I fill the General Info table:

"...which had been transported from the port of [port1] to [port2] and discharged on [date]"

Now, I don't know VBA programming, but I'm willing to learn to get this to work because it would greatly ease my workload and I can ensure uniform accuracy within my reports. If there are any easier methods to go about this, please do let me know!

Thank you!
