Default Select all headers/footers sections

I'm glad I could help.

(And there's no need to feel stupid.)

Dear all,

I have inserted a field in my header/footers sections, and now, I have
updated the field and wonder how to make it update in the corresponding
sections.
I could go in the header/footer of a section, hit Ctrl+a and then F9,
but
only the current section is updated and I have a lot of them in my
document.

How could I select all sections or is there any other way to do it?


Switch to Print Preview and back; this should update the fields.

I also have the question about how to make a text reference in the
document.
I have the word for example "ID-12345" and it will be really useful to
be
able to make a reference to it, displayed with the same word and which
could
be updated automatically with F9


Bookmark the text and, at the appropriate locations, insert a
cross-reference to the text of that bookmark.
