How to link two pieces of text to read always the same...

I have an InDesign Doc with a Master Page containing a margin and some graphic images that I want displayed on each page.

It works very well, so that when I change the captain all other pages are updated.

However, in the design of master there is a header that reads "title" of the document and the "Version number".

This information is presented on the cover page of the document.

What I want to do, is to allow the header of automatic update for all that is in the first cover Page text, as it will be the first completed field.

Is this possible?

Thank you very much

The running header variable is not looking for a header, its main function is to create a header, you would find in a dictionary or a phone book. The variable search text with a style is applied, the paragraph or character style. In this case, you probably want to use a paragraph style, and as Jongware said, this must be a style not used elsewhere in the file (it may be based on another style, if necessary, so that it looks and acts like other model if you want to change, as long as it has a unique name).

Set the variable to the header (paragraph Style) running and choose "first on the page' as the position. ID should look until he actually finds the style, which is located on the first page, and continue to use that until he finds a new inistance on a new page, which, in your case, shouldn't happen, so anything you put in that first paragraph should show around where you put the variable.
