Copy and paste is definitely the easiest way.

There is no good way to synchronize text boxes in Publisher, only
workarounds as JoAnn pointed out.
I use the Personal Information (Business Information in 2007) as a
workaround if I need to have many text boxes synchronized. You can update
this information on the fly.
It isn't too time consuming to simply copy/paste text from one box to
another.

Hi, and thank you so much for the quick respond :)
This didn't quite solve my problem. I want, in the same document,
several
textboxes linked two and two together. Meaning two textboxes with one
text
and two other textboxes with an other text. Any suggestions??

It can be done but it's a bit cumbersome. I posted this the other
month. Let
me know if/how it works for you.
"Start with a newletter template. Delete out everything except for
the
newsletter title on page 1. Change the format and the text to
whatever you
want. You can copy and paste that text box as many times as you need,
adding
pages as needed. Whenever you change the text in any one of those
boxes, the
rest will change to match. Everything seems to be coded into that one
text
box and I'm not the right person to figure out the coding into this.
Add in the rest of your text/graphics but the "newsletter title" text
boxes
have to be separate text boxes. You can group them with other objects
to
lock in place and it doesn't seem to affect the synchronization.
I haven't played with this a lot so there may be other caveats.
Copying a
newsletter title text box into a new blank document and then
inserting a
duplicate page seems to maintain the link. At least it does on the
test page
I just made. "

Hi. In the newsletter template two textboxes contains the same
text. If i
write something else in one of the textboxes, the other one changes
automatically. How do I set up two new textboxes this function??
