Does Word have an option to update fields AUTOMATICALLY at open???

Another thing you can do, is to place this code in Normal Template's This Document module, then place a button on the quick acces toolbar with this macro assigned, to update fields whenever you decide to...

Code:

Sub UpdateAllFields()

Dim oStory As Range
For Each oStory In ActiveDocument.StoryRanges
    oStory.Fields.Update
    If oStory.StoryType <> wdMainTextStory Then
        While Not (oStory.NextStoryRange Is Nothing)
            Set oStory = oStory.NextStoryRange
            oStory.Fields.Update
        Wend
    End If
Next oStory
Set oStory = Nothing
End Sub
