Need to have text field linked to another text field

I'm using Adobe Acrobat X Pro.  I want to link two text fields.  So when someone types in their information it copies to the other text field.  That way they only have to type their name or address in once.  Is that possible?  Please help!  I don't know much about javascript.

You don't need JavaScript at all. You just need to use the same field name for both fields. Fields can only have one value so editing one will update the other.

Thank you! Seems I’m making it more difficult than it really is!
