The 'do you want to update links' Message When Opening Document
How do I stop this message from popping up? I have a document and want the
links to update automatically when I open the document, without having this message pop up and answering yes or no. I've gone into Options and set it to 'Update Auto Links at Open', and also gone into Edit/Links (in the document) and set each link to 'automatic update'....but I still get this message. Any ideas? |

Hi ?B?UGFpZ2U=?=,

You don't mention which version of Word you have, but see if this helps: Prompt to update fields: http://support.microsoft.com?kbid=330079 WD: How the Behavior of the Word Fields Changes After You Install the Word Update Cindy Meister INTER-Solutions, Switzerland http://homepage.swissonline.ch/cindymeister (last update Jun 8 2004) http://www.word.mvps.org This reply is posted in the Newsgroup; please post any follow question or reply in the newsgroup and not by e-mail :-) |

Thanks, Cindy. I don't think the article you referenced applies, but will
review it in depth. I never got this message before, but then I reinstalled Word on a new computer, and now when I bring the document up, I get the message.

Hi ?B?UGFpZ2U=?=,
but then I reinstalled Word on a new computer, and now when I bring the document up, I get the message. Then the article certainly could apply, as the new machine might have security settings in place that would cause this prompt.
