Hi,

I have found the following macro code that will go through a document
and update all the fields when run.

I woudld like this to run automatically when a document is saved or
closed.

Can anyone help me out with this?

Thanks,

Gary.

You need to call your macro from either an "Auto" macro or an event handler.
It can be difficult to anticipate and catch all the possible ways a document
could be saved or closed, so you have some studying to do.
