Updating contents of a Word table   

Hi,

Ho do I update the contens of a Word table? The Table type does not have an 
Update() method.

TIA,
JY

Re: Updating contents of a Word table   

Is this a table of contents, a table of figures, or an "ordinary" table that
contains formula fields? Generally, from the user interface you can update
fields by selecting them and pressing F9.

If you want a macro, you can use the following to update all fields in the
body of the document:

Sub UpdateFieldsInMainDoc()
    Dim t As TableOfContents
    Dim f As TableOfFigures
    Dim g As Field

    For Each t In ActiveDocument.TablesOfContents
        t.Update
    Next t

    For Each f In ActiveDocument.TablesOfFigures
        f.Update
    Next f

    For Each g In ActiveDocument.Fields
        g.Update
    Next g

End Sub
