They will update when you run the macro. It's automates the right-clicking and selecint "update field" that you are doing.<br /><br />I've tried other similar scripts but somehow they all mess up some references. This seems to work the best so far. Tuck,

They contain fields linked to bookmarks, which display the page number in the table. These page numbers don't update as I edit the document, so I have to go to each "overview" table and manually right-click and select "update field." <br /> <br />This macro doesn't update those fields. <img alt="Emoticon" src="http://www.chadsmiley.com/chadsmiley/home.nsf/emoticons/DLYH-5N3GHL/$File/sad.gif" /> I suppose I misunderstand the purpose of this macro.
