Default Auto Update Field Codes without Macros or F9?

Is there anyway of updating field codes within a document when it is opened
without using Macros or keying F9? Namely the ToC and an {INCLUDETEXT} field
codes. Any help would be gratefully received,

Muchos Gracias,
Ian

If there's a check mark on the option Tools Options Print Update
fields (in Word 2007, Office button Word Options Display Update fields
before printing), then going to Print Preview and back will update the
fields. But it's just as easy to press Ctrl+A and then F9.

If you're looking for something that doesn't need any user interaction at
all, then you're stuck with a macro.
