I don't see how an AutoOpen macro would affect the process of printing to
PDF.

I use custom templates for my docs, and then they're PDF'd (with specific
options) for distribution. Do you know how Adobe would react to a Word
macro
during the PDF process?

Write an AutoOpen macro (saved in Normal.dot) to Ctrl+A, F9.

But there should be a way for Word to AUTOMATICALLY update
cross-references
and TOC fields (page numbers, in both cases) with the document is
opened.
Do
you know of a way to configure this? I don't want my doc users to
have to
manually update all the cross-references and TOCs by pressing F9.

Have you tried Ctrl+A then F9? If the referred item still exists in
the
document, the cross reference to it should then be updated.

I write large reports and I use the cross referecne feature for
tables
and
figures in Word XP extensively in my texts. Unfortunately now
and
then I
have to rearrange or add/remove some of these tables and figures
via
the
caption feature. The table/figure numbers are updated
automatically
and
correctly, I apprecieate that

However, the cross-references in the texts themselves are not
updated

In fact, the hyperlinks also point in the wrong places. That
means I
have
to scan through every cross references and manually make
alterations
to
these
references. I think that defeats the supposedly intended purpose
of
having
the cross-reference feature in the first place. Perhaps this is
a
bug?
