Default How force FILENAME field code to update?

See http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=832897 "The FILENAME field does
not automatically update when you open a document in Word".

I run Word 2003 (ver.11) on WinXP/SP2.

I have used the field code FILENAME in the footer of a document.

The FILENAME does not get updated if I save the file with a new name,
close Word and then open the new file. This can ne very confusing.

How can I force the FILENAME in mt footer to update?
