Can you copy text input from one Geocoder text to another one?

MayJeff

I create two Geocoder compenent. One use my own geocode locator service and another one use ESRI.  See my attachment file.  I want to use a text I type in header controller widget and show it on search widget so won't need to retype it. Just like copy and paste it manually.  Is there possible?  
Hope someone can help.
Thanks.

May Jeff,

   In the HeaderControllerWidget.mxml make these changes:

            protected function singleLineSearch_keyUpHandler(event:KeyboardEvent):void             {                 addSharedData("esriGeocoderText", new ArrayCollection([singleLineSearch.geocoder.text]));             }                 <components:GeocoderComponent id="singleLineSearch"                                               width="230" height="28"                                               includeInLayout="false"                                               visible="false"                                               keyUp="singleLineSearch_keyUpHandler(event)"/>

and here is an example widget that listens for that data and adds the text you type in the main geocoder to a new geocoder:
