Updating cross-references in text boxes?

[Guest]

Greetings,

I typically update the cross-references in a document through Ctrl-A (select
all) followed by F9.

However, this does not update any cross-references I have in text boxes. Is
there a way to make a global 'update' of all cross-references?

Thanks!

Use the macro in the following article (by Graham Mayor) to update all
of the fields in a document: http://gmayor.com/installing_macro.htm.

Alternatively, you can convert the text boxes to frames, whose
contents will be included when you Select All. (You can use the
Convert to Frame button on the Text Box tab of Format | Text Box.)
Note that if you are using linked text boxes, you cannot replace them
with frames.
