Select All/ F9 Command No Longer Works

[binar]

Fellow Forum Members,
Using Word 2003 for a 700 page technical manual. The problem is my TOC, LOF,
LOT no longer work. If I do a Print Preview to update I sometimes get this
message: "Word has insufficient memory. You will not be able to undo this
action once its completed. Do you want to continue?" I select "YES" and the
page numbers don't update on anything. Alternatively, if I use CONTROL A + F9
nothing happens. How can I bring my TOC, LOF, and LOT lists back to life and
working like it's suppose to work? Currently, if I need to update my TOC,
LOF and LOT I need to delete all of them and recreate them from scratch. This
is a lot of work and I would like to avoid this. Any help that will help me
fix this problem will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I've never seen what you are describing, but I suspect the document is
corrupt. See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/CorruptDoc.htm.
