I have a created a couple forms in Word 2007 and would like certain
information from one form to populate into the other form when it is opened.
Family Name, Date, purpose, etc.

Not an easy proposition. How are your VBA coding skills?

And by "forms" you do mean separate documents? If so, then:

1. have your first form write the data to an separate text file (an INI file
if you like).
2. when the other documents open, they retrieve the information from that
file.

But yes, it would likely take some VBA skills.
