have not been able to find what doing wrong. trying to replace each string in "Keyword" and "Title" and "Subject" field of word doc.

it word 2013 64 bit, win 7 64 bit.

i unable change strings in word fields    "title"  "keywords"   "comments"     rest of text added saved.

one other symptom when opened word,

file tab / open  file not show recent file.

but file tab / info  did show file info while file open.

the template used create word doc  (a macro enabled doc)  had strings in each field.  

when did save filenamewhatever.  the field put in header ( file name path ) worked.

when later went change keywords doc, put mouse in field in doc, popped "keywords" , outlined box of keywords, erased them , enter wanted tags. clicked save did not save change.

i figured goofed , should have gone "save as" dialog noticed along spot file name , drop-down control pick format save file as, had box author, title, tags , comments.

so deleted value in boxes, entered wanted, clicked on save. 

went word doc highlighted spot keywords , subject , comments clicked on update. have sworn every other time word doc fields  keywords updated.

what doing wrong?     somehow set settings under options happens (or not happen)?
