You can e.g. create & insert a variable called "User Field": 1) Write your text 2) Place Cursor at the desired first occurence of the variable. 3) Insert > Fields > Other > Tab "Variables" 4) Select Type "User Field", Format "Text", Name "MyName" (or similar, some reserved names like "Name" are not allowed), Value "[EDIT ME]" 5) Click "Insert" button (or arrow) but don't close the Field Dialog. 6) Move the cursor to the next occurence of the variable 7) Double click on the variable in the "Selection" pane to insert a new instance Repeat #6 - 7 until you are done. Save the document. To change the variable's content (= its value) you can double click any one of the instances and edit the Value field in the Field Dialog. If you don't see any, you can play with the toggles in View > Field Shadings or View > Field Names.
