Is there anyway of updating field codes within a document when it is opened
without using Macros or keying F9? Namely the ToC and an {INCLUDETEXT} field
codes. Any help would be gratefully received,

Muchos Gracias,
Ian
 
If there's a check mark on the option Tools > Options > Print > Update
fields (in Word 2007, Office button > Word Options > Display > Update fields
before printing), then going to Print Preview and back will update the
fields. But it's just as easy to press Ctrl+A and then F9.

If you're looking for something that doesn't need any user interaction at
all, then you're stuck with a macro.
