-------------------------------
TIA asked:
Does anyone know how to make Word automatically update your formula fields before you print a protected document?
-------------------------------
I usually just do a select all, right-click and select Update Field. This will update all your fields, including cross references and such. The only problem with this is that you have to do an Update Field for an fields in the headers and foots.
