Instead, try switching into Print Preview and back (making sure that
Tools | Options | Print has "update fields" checked) and then Word will
handle finding the necessary fields.

Trying to select all and update all fields. It doesn't work. I can
update by right-clicking on the TOC and update field, but why can't I
do it by selecting all? I want the cross-references to update as
well. Thanks- Hide quoted text -

No, not in text boxes or anything... Why wouldn't this work? I have
always used Ctrl+A+F9 key to update a document.
