great, thanks for the replies. it's nice to have a few methods of approaching the same problem. the block method does work but inserting a field into the mtext box doesnt seem to be an option under Acad 2004. Might have to upgrade if that is the case.
I recently started using AutoCAD 2004, up from 2000, and am working with multiple layouts.
How may I create text boxes in the various layouts to mirror the text in the first layout? Hence, when text in the first layout changes, the other layouts change accordingly.
Thanks in advance for your help.
