hi roman,

 

it sounds you’ll want investigate using 1 or more of word’s links , references fields.

in word 2007/2010, insert tab > text group > click quick parts > choose fields

in categories drop-down list; then choose links , references, you’ll see following fields:

 

autotext

autotextlist

hyperlink

includepicture

includetext

link

noteref

pageref

quote

ref

styleref

 

field codes in word – article includes definitions of word fields including links , references fields listed above.
