CTRL-A / F9 no longer updates all fields
Hi Experts!
I've been doing the CTRL-A / F9 'Update All' command to update all my field properties. Sometime last week, this command stopped working. Before I ask our admin to order another keyboard, is there anything I can do to get this command to start working again? Thanks bunches, -- Rosanne Ramos San Diego, California USA |

CTRL-A / F9 no longer updates all fields
Please be specific in what you mean when you say it stopped working.
Also, version of Word? It works, but it never did update all fields in all documents. It updates unlocked fields in the document layer. There are layers it does not reach. See http://www.gmayor.com/installing_macro.htm for a macro that reaches all the layers (stories). -- Charles Kenyon Word New User FAQ & Web Directory: http://addbalance.com/word Intermediate User's Guide to Microsoft Word (supplemented version of Microsoft's Legal Users' Guide) http://addbalance.com/usersguide See also the MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/ which is awesome!

Hi Rosanne,
Have you checked that the fields are still there (eg by toggling Alt-f9), and that they haven't been locked (ctrl-F11 locks, Ctrl-Sift-F11 unlocks)? Cheers "Rosanne Ramos" wrote in message ...
