Default Having file name/path change automatically where placed in footer

Sometimes I use the same documents and just update them to a particular case.
When I change the document and "save as", how do I get the file name/path
assigned to it in the footer to automatically update?

Thanks!

See http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=832897 "The FILENAME field
does not automatically update when you open a document in Word
2002 or Word 2003".
