IncludeText fields will not update automatically.
You can either insert the documents as linked files and set the update links
on open option
or
You can run an update macro on opening the document. You can see suitable
update macro code and the use of autoopen macros at

Hi everybody,
I have a group of 20 documents that are all merged into one with
INCLUDETEXT fields. The big document is merged into another document
with an INCLUDETEXT field of its own. Does anyone know if there's any
way to set the fields so once I update one of the 20 original
documents, the change will appear in the other two big documents so I
don't have to go through them every time and manually update? I'm
using Word 2003.
Thanks!
