Multiple layers with the same control?

I have an odd question. This may not be possible, but can any of you think of any way to do the following:

Have one layer on which you could make control other layers. Ummm. For instance if you change layer "A", layers "1", "2", "3", etc. would also change.

I want each of those layers to be absolutely identical, but I will be changing their contents regularly and thus don't particularly want to change each one individually. I know I could duplicate the new changed layer but that is going to be a real pain in this particular case.

So is there any brilliant way to do this that I am overlooking?

Thanks so much!

Just wanted to bump this since I replied to so many thread.

SOLVED! Convert the first text layer to a smart object, then duplicate the smart object as many times as you need it. Position where you want them and voila. When you need to update just double click on the smart object, make your changes, commit and save, and VOILA. SO COOL!
