Generally, you can use the macro at
http://www.gmayor.com/installing_macro.htm to update fields in all stories
(headers, footers, text boxes, and so on). However, this does not seem to
work (reliably) for fields in footnotes. You may want to ask in a
programming newsgroup such as microsoft.public.word.vba.general for
assistance with this.

I have the following two sets of code but neither updates fields that are
placed in my footnotes. What code do I need to get the footnotes updated?
Selection.WholeStory
Selection.Fields.Update
ActiveDocument.Fields.Update
