    I have a textbox in a document and inside the textbox I have placed a couple of field codes. These need to be updated when change the document.

    I have used the code ActiveDocument.Fields.Update, but it will not update within the textbox, only outside.

    Can anyone give me some help in achieving the update?

    Thanks!

      This was discussed recently and Macropod came up with some code to update all fields throughout a document.
      See post 288634 for details.
