word autotext filename

[Robert Ehrlich]

description:
- I have included the autotext filename in my document
- date is coded in name of file for ex. BLABLA-14-07-06.doc
- first time when I have included the autotext filename
- the content is working fine
- I can see in the document BLABLA-14-07-06.doc
- next time I have updated to BLABLA-15-07-06.doc
- the autotext function delivers BLABLA-14-07-06.doc

So it seems the function doesn't provide an automatic update.
I know there a flag like ...update with print...
But I'm looking for a possibility to generate the update autom.
When the document opens.

Is that possible? Any idea?
Hope my description was not too complicate.

The document (or the relevant template, if available) needs to have an
AutoOpen macro which triggers an update of all fields.
