Thanks for coming back to me macropod.

That's what I'd suspected I would have to do, to get StyleRef to work. However, as I wanted to make the template as easy as possible for those that are not confident with Word, I wanted to make it as simple as possible. Whilst StyleRef would pull the required information into the header, having to create a different style (up to 7 styles) with exactly the same settings, for each element of an address, could make it more complicated, especially if they are trying to diagnose why an element isn't repeating in the report.

Can you think of another way that I can lay out an address on the cover sheet and then, repeat part of it in the header and the whole address at various points within the body of the text. If the only answer is to use mapped content controls, then is there a way to delete any unused ones?
