To update the fields in the selection, press F9. (To select all text in a
document, you can press Ctrl+A.)

Note that normally page number fields would go into the header or footer, in
which case they will update automatically on repagination.

...
I need to know how to copy a table to create a new table with the proper
fields and numbers.
We have a word file with a table being used for job safety analysis. One
cell in the table is Page: Page x of y with the understanding that we'd
change the numbers as appropriate.
I know enough about Word to turn those into fields and I'd like to set up
a
template of sorts for my coworkers to be able to create their own files
with
fields as well.
The problem I have is that I don't know how to copy a table without having
to reset the fields. (For example, when I copy a table from page 2 to page
3
the cell still reads "Page 2 of 2" until I get into "Edit Field..."
dialoge
box.)
Also, the new table numbering needs to be reset back to start at 1 each
time. This numbering is in the left-most column.
