How do I globally update fields in many headers?

I have cross references in headers for several sections of a document but I
can't seem to update all of these in one shot. I need to enter each header
separately and update them with ctl-a, F9 for every section. Selecting all
with ctl-a outside of a header selects only the objects outside headers. No
header cross references are updated.

Make sure you have the "Update fields" option checked in Tools >
Options > Print. Switch to Print Preview and then back to Print Layout
view.
