I have placed a FileName field in the footer of a template file. When I
start a document it gives it the name document1 (or document2) but when I
do a Save and give the file a name the Filename field in the footer doesn't
get updated with the new name. To update the filename in the footer's
field I have to View Header and Footer select the footer select the
text n the Filename field and right click and then Update Field.
Isn't there a way for this to happen automatically?

Thanks,
SteveK
