Default Updating a field in a header

Hi again everyone,
One more question from me: Does anyone know if there's an easy keyboard
shortcut to update fields that are in headers? I know I can select it and hit
F9. I guess the real question is, does anyone know why the Select All, Alt+F9
path doesn't work to update header fields? I'd just like to know.
Thanks!
