Is there a way to force the update of all calcualted fields in a word document?
I have a document that has in excess of 60 tables that are sequentially
numbered using the SEQ Table field code. I have had to add a number of tables early in the document and find the sequence identifiers are not all updating. I have to go to each one and tell it to update. I also have a table of content that I would like to update. That can be done easily enough since there is only one Table of contents, I was wondering if there was a way to force all the updateable fields to update, so I don't have to look at inidividual items. -- Henry Stock, Network Administrator onProject.com 3 Wing Drive Cedar Knolls, NJ 07927-1006 |

Henry,
CTRL+a to select all and then F9 shift to print preview and back should also work if PrintOptionsPrint OptionsUpdate fields is checked. -----Original Message----- I have a document that has in excess of 60 tables that are sequentially numbered using the SEQ Table field code.

Ctrl-A, F9 will do it if the fields are in the body of the document; but
this will miss fields in headers, footers, footnotes, etc. There's a simple macro you can create if you need to update fields wherever their location. Post again if you need it.
