Fields do not update in Word 2010


how fields update automatically in word 2010?  they should updating when document opened every 1 i've tried not.

an example "filename" field.  if added document, , document saved , closed, filename changed, when document re-opened still shows old field value.  you have right click on field value , choose "update field" update defeats purpose our needs.

it should noted "date" field not have problem.  it auto-updates , auto-highlights when hovered over.  additionally, when single-clicked on, nice "update" tab appears on field.  why aren't field codes working this?
