I am trying to populate a form letter (from Excel) which I have set up in
Word using Form Fields. One field is repeated in the form, so I set up a
Cross Reference field to my other bookmark in the document. I went to Insert
- Reference - Cross-Reference and then selecting Bookmark as reference type.
I run my macro from Excel and the bookmarked fields are populated using the
data in my Excel worksheet. However, the Cross-Reference I set up is not
updated. I have to RIght Click on this field in Word and then select Update.
This updates the field.
How do I have this field automaticaly update without having to right click
it and then selecting Update?
Any help would be appreciated!!

eg ActiveDocument.Fields.Update
Hope this helps.
