Default Link and paster special

But LINK fields set to automatically update are still "more automatic" than
other types of fields in Word. For example, using PageDown and PageUp (to
scroll the object out of view and then back into view) should trigger an
update.

Hi Doug,

Link updating, though automatic, is not dynamic. That is, you need to do
something to cause the links to update. Usually, a Print preview is
sufficient, though you can also select the 'copy' and press F9 to update
it - Ctrl-A, F9 updates all the fields & links in the document.

I have some table cells that I want to link to other areas on the same
Word
document
I have done the Copy and Paste Special and all works fine..unless.
Say that the info in the cell say "today is a nice day" If I change it
to
"today is a nice days", I added the s, ...then the copied area doesn't
update
to show the added letters.
Is there a way to format a table cell to select the entire cell when
doing a
copy or am I missing something?
I have tried the paste formatted, non formatted and HTML
Thoughts??

Thanks
Doug
