Why won't my fields update?
For some reason field won't update now in word for me. Page numbers, table
of contents, figure lists, etc. instead of showing me the page, etc. I get the field code, i.e. {PAGE} instead of {1}. I've tried updating fields and it doesn't fix it. This problem seems pervasive over any file I have in word, i.e. if I open a new file and add page numbers, I get {PAGE}. If I send my files to someone, my fields are fine. Please help! |

Why won't my fields update?
I'm having a slightly different problem with field updates & hoping someone
can help. I created a document with "Insert Link". I was playing around with some changes to make sure the F9 update worked. For some reason, when I make a change in the source document & come back to the target, F9 is no long working. What am I missing?
