Default Updating fields in Word 2007


Greg,
Those are some awsome macros you have. I'm in the process of setting them
up. I'm going to try a class first and see how easy it is with VBA.

Thanks for the pointers to your site.

I'm using Word 2007 and have a question regard updating fields.

I'm trying to update a field that copies the title of a report to
different places (cover, TOC, body) by using a ref field {REF
CourseTitle}. It works great until I change the bookmark that the
fields are referring to. Then the reference fields won't update to
the new bookmark contents or variable.

I tried making the change. saving the file, restarting word and
reloading the file. It didn't update the fields.

Is there a good way to force it to update all fields in a document
all at once (all sections, body, header, footer, etc)?
