Use JQuery or Javascript. Get the the two fields Id's using inspect element. Populate the second field based on the first field.

Hi SFDC ADM 7,
Lets assume you have 2 fields on account object (fields - PNO, AcctNo)
and you second object opportunity so flow this,
Create formula fields (text) for PNO and AcctNo in opportunity object. It will automatically gets populated on selecting account from opportunity.
 
Try out the following formula:
  
Account__r.PNO and Account__r.AcctNo

If the above suggestion worked, let us know by marking the answer as "Best Answer" right under the comment which will help the rest of the community should they have a similar issue in the future. 

Thanks & Regards
