How to update Contents tab in the Adv. document properties dialog? Problem with multiple languages.

I'm not sure how to force a rebuild of that info but I would try making a copy of the app.xml file and wiping the contents of the TitlesOfParts so it is just an empty xml element. Perhaps this will rebuild automatically when you reopen the document.

I've tried that method, and surprisingly it works kind-of well.
After wiping the content of the TitleOfParts and HeadingPairs nodes, Word complains that it cannot read some information on opening and offers you to "restore" information. Once saved, the Contents pane is cleaned.

Thanks a lot.

On a side note, I think it was indeed inserted by Sharepoint. But my knowledge of that is pretty lame :/
I will post this (resolved but not understood) issue on the Microsoft Answer forum.
Thanks to all of you!
