Blocks with Fields, is it possible?

My field is Architecture. I have to place multiple callouts for different assembly conditions, these callouts are on multiple pages. My problem is that as the assembly conditions grow and change so that condition 1 becomes condition 2, I have to go through the entire sheetset and methodically check each callout to ensure each condition 1 becomes condition 2. Is there a way to use fields in a block, so I don't have to waste time on looking for like objects? 

 

I have tried creating a block, inserting a field. in the Field name, I click sheetview. From there it is just straight confusion. 

 

Thanks in advance!

Please provide more complete information - examples of what you have now, what needs to change, the blocks involved......remember that no one in the forum can see your screen, drawing, or read your mind - too little information will result in few responses as people don't want to spend the time making assumptions based on sketchy information.

So this is an SSM Field? Do you have Field updates turned off https://help.autodesk.com/view/ACD/2023/ENU/?guid=GUID-EF5D2DDE-A170-4BB4-8F76-7F3FAFE30E56#:~:text=...

How would a block automagically solve this refresh-a-field need exactly?
