In Word, how can I link data in the same file, so that if I change the data in one place, the data automatically changes in another place? This is similar to OLE links, except the link is in the same file, not to an external data source. Many thanks!
Some types of links don't update automatically. They require Ctrl+A, F9 (at minimum). If you have Word set to update fields when you print, switching to Print Preview will usually update them.
