REF fields in the headers of protected documents don't work. You could try
using StyleRef fields instead. See

do you know of anyway to get the information to update when it is cross
referenced into a header? On the first page the table is in the body of
the
document. Then on the second and all other following pages I have cross
referenced a section of this table that I need repeated on each page as a
bookmark into the heading. This worked except that the information wont
update on page 2 -... when I edit the information in the body of the first
page?

There is no way to repeat table headings when the table is split. You'll
have to reinsert the heading rows manually.

Background:
I have a document that is a long table that goes on for several pages
and
has to be form field protected. Unfortuantly, in one part of the
document
I
also have to be able to use bold, italics, underline, etc; which word
will
not allow in form fields. I had to insert section breaks and only
protect
certain sections of the document in order to be able to change the
font
attributes in the areas that I needed.
My real question:
Since I have added these (continuous) section breaks the header rows
of
the
table that I had set to repeat on each page no longer will repeat on
the
following pages. Does anyone have any suggestions.
What I have already tried:
I have already tried to cross reference these rows as a bookmark into
the
header of pages 2 - ..... but the information wont update when I edit
the
information on the first page.
