I've foud a similar question from 2013, but I'm wondering if there is a solution for this now.
I have a word document with fields as such:
{ DOCPROPERTY example \* MERGEFORMAT }
When my property is modified, in order for the changes to be displayed, I need to select the field(s) and right-click -> update. I am wondering if there is a method in the Word Javascript API to do this?
As Rick suggested in that thread, There is no API to do this currently, Please suggest it on our UserVoice page
