In the REF field, are you using the bookmark name for the text form field (you'll see the name in the Text Form Field Options dialog box)?

Also, have you remembered to set the "Calculate on exit" option for the field? Then REF fields will update as you exit a form field with the Tab key.

Note that it is also possible to update the REF field(s) by switching to Print Preview (Ctrl+F2) and then exiting Print Preview (ESC).
