How to AUTO-update special fields like "Document title"?

[Pablo Suarez]

I inserted into a Word doc a special field like Document Title.

When I change now the document title in File->Properties->Summary->Title

then the just inserted fields remains unchanged. Currently I have eplicitely to
clcik the contet menu "Update field" to let become the new title visible.

Is there an option the let Word AUTOMATICALLY change all occurencies of the field
Document title whenever there refered original field changes?

The update is not automatic, but unless the option is set off, the fields
will be updated when the document is printed or the print preview is
activated.

Alteratively, use Ctrl+a then F9

Ctrl+a selects everything in the body of the document and F9 updates any
selected fields.
