How to Auto Update Linked Charts in Word 2013 When Document Opens

Does anyone know how to have charts, that were pasted & linked from Excel 2013 to Word 2013, automatically update when the Word document is opened? I have the "Update Automatic Links at Open" selected in the Word, but to update the charts I have to select each one and "refresh", which is a pain with lots of charts.

Would VBA work?

Using Windows 8.1

Thanks!

If you use CTRL+a and then press F9, are the charts updated?

Hope this helps,
