Copying radio buttons in forms

I have a multi-page form containing both text fields and radio buttons.  The fixed text in the multiple pages is different on each page, but the data entered on the first page in the text and radio button fields should copy to identical text fields and radio buttons on all pages.  The text fields are no problem but how do I make the radio button entries on the 2nd and subsequent pages copy the entries on the first page?

First of all, I moved your question to the Acrobat PDF Forms forum.

To do that right-click one of the radio-buttons in the group and select Properties. Then, under the Options tab, tick the box that says "Buttons with the same name and choice are selected in unison". You can select multiple fields at the same time and apply it to all of them, too.

My apologies for placing this in the wrong location on the site; I'm a 'newbie' to the Adobe help system. 

Many thanks for the solution to my problem!
