Update Fields in Your Microsoft Word Documents Manually or Automatically

by Avantix Learning Team | Updated April 6, 2021

Applies to: Microsoft^® Word^® 2010, 2013, 2016, 2019 or 365 (Windows)

If you have inserted fields in your Microsoft Word document, you can choose to update them manually or have them update automatically. For fields you update manually, you can update just one field or update all the fields in your Word document at once. Some fields, such as page numbers, will automatically update when you preview your document. Many fields are set by default to update when you open a document but you can also set an option in Microsoft Word to update fields when you preview your file.

You can insert fields in several ways in Word. Some fields are created when you use Word’s built-in features (such as inserting a table of contents, a cross-reference, a bookmark or a page number). Other fields can be inserted using the Field dialog box or can be entered using keyboard shortcuts.

Updating a single field

You can update a single field manually in two ways:

1. Right-click the field and select Update Field. Depending on the type of field, another dialog box may appear where you can select other options (this occurs for example, with a tables of contents).
2. Click the field and press F9.

Update field appears in the drop-down menu when you right-click a field:

Updating all fields in the body of a Word document

To manually update all fields in the body of a Word document:

1. Click in the body of the Word document.
2. Press Ctrl + A.
3. Press F9.

Updating fields in headers, footers or text boxes

Some fields in headers, footers or text boxes must be updated separately.

To update fields in headers, footers or text boxes:

1. Click in the header, footer or text box.
2. Pess Ctrl + A to select all.
3. Press F9.

Page fields do not need to be updated manually.

Updating a table of contents field

If you update a table of contents, another dialog box appears. In the Update Table of Contents dialog box, select Update page numbers only if no content has changed. Select Update entire table to update page numbers and content.

Updating fields before printing or previewing

You can set an option in Microsoft Word to ensure that all fields are updated automatically before previewing (to preview, click the File tab in the Ribbon and then click Print):

1. Click the File tab in the Ribbon and click Options at the bottom. A dialog box appears.
2. Click Display in the categories on the left.
3. Scroll down to the Printing options area in the panel on the right.
4. Ensure the check box for Update fields before printing is checked.
5. Click OK.

The Word Options dialog box where Update field before printing has been checked appears as follows:

Preventing field updating

You can prevent fields from updating by locking them.

To lock a field so that it is not updated, click the field, and then press Ctrl + F11. To unlock a field so that it can be updated, click the field, and then press Ctrl + Shift + F11.

Displaying fields with grey shading

You can change your options in Microsoft Word so that all fields are displayed with grey shading (the shading does not print). This can be helpful to determine where you have fields in your document.

To display fields with grey shading:

1. Click the File tab in the Ribbon and click Options at the bottom. A dialog box appears.
2. Click Advanced in the categories on the left.
3. Scroll down to Show document content area in the panel on the right.
4. Select Always from the drop-down menu for Field shading.
5. Click OK.

The Word Options dialog box with Field shading set to Always appears as follows:

You may not want to display field shading permanently. The default setting is Field shading when selected.

Fields are a very powerful way of using variable content in Microsoft Word documents. However, if fields do not update, your document can display errors or inaccurate content.

Please Note:
This article is written for users of the following Microsoft Word versions: 97, 2000, 2002, and 2003. If you are using a later version (Word 2007 or later), this tip may not work for you. For a version of this tip written specifically for later versions of Word, click here: Automatically Updating Fields and Links.

Stephanie wondered if there is a way in Word to force the updating of all fields and links in a document when either opening or saving (closing) the file. She knows that she can force updates prior to printing, but she was looking, specifically, for the open or close method of updating.

You can automatically update both fields and links when you print a document, but Word treats the two items differently when you are opening a file. Word provides a way to always update your links when opening a document. You can do this by following these steps:

1. Choose Options from the Tools tab. Word displays the Options dialog box.
2. Make sure the General tab is selected. (See Figure 1.)



Figure 1. The General tab of the Options dialog box.

3. Click the Update Automatic Links at Open check box.
4. Click on OK.

That setting should make sure that all your links are always up to date. If you want to update the fields when the document is opened, you’ll need to use a macro to accomplish the task. Specifically, you’ll need to use either an AutoOpen or AutoClose macro, depending on whether you want to update the fields when the document opens or closes. The following is an example of an AutoOpen macro you can use.

Sub AutoOpen()
    With Options
        .UpdateFieldsAtPrint = True
        .UpdateLinksAtPrint = True
    End With
    ActiveDocument.Fields.Update
End Sub

Note that the macro makes sure that the options are set to force updating the fields and links when printing occurs, then it updates all the members of the Fields collection in the document. If you, instead, wanted to update the fields at closing, you could use this macro:

Sub AutoClose()
    ActiveDocument.Fields.Update
End Sub

This macro is much shorter because there is no need to set the update-on-print options when you are exiting the document.
