Here are two screen shots showing how the mapped controls work using Greg's utility. By the way, the utility is only needed to write the document. It is not needed to use it.

The first screen shot shows the page as the drop-down is being used. The control shows "Steve" in two locations. The second screen shot shows it after the change to "Bill" is made. A change made to any one of these mapped controls is reflected in all copies in the document.
