My Word document, with 12 ASK/REF fields, prompts me to update fields when
the document is opened and closed. How do I prevent the update prompt when
closing the document, without losing the option to update it the next time
the document gets opened? I get tired of pounding the ESC key before I can
close it!
 
Word 2003. No macros, just the fields. They are inserted into a document, vs.
a template. I open the original document , answer the prompts, and do a SAVE
AS to a new document. In this way I preserve the original prompt responses,
which serve as a tickler for how prompt responses should be formatted. The
new document is what I want to stop asking for updates when I close it and
when I subsequently re-open it.
