Default text form field in document (based on template)

Scenerio: I have a template which contains a few text form fields. I
have placed this template on the network to be used as a workgroup
template. All is well with creating new documents based on the
template. However, it has been brought to my attention that the
properties of a text form field need to be changed. I have
since fixed it on the template, but I cannot get the changes to apply
to existing documents which were already created from the template. It
doesn't seem reasonable to me that I should have to tell people they
need to create a new doc and copy/paste their data into it. I've tried
using Tools Templates and add-ins, and checking the box for
automatically updating the document's styles...but this does not seem
to affect text form fields. Any tips on this? Thanks in advance for
looking!
