Default Word 2007 - field "Update automatic links at open" does not work

In the footer I have the field { FILENAME \*Caps \* MERGEFORMAT }, i.e. show
the file name of the document. Although I have selected the "Update automatic
links at open" in "Word Options / Advanced / General", the link is not
updated when opening the document. The document is using a template I have
created myself. When I first create the document I see "Document1" in the
footer. I then save the document to the name XXXX.docx for example. When
opening the document again, it still shows "Document1". Should also be said
that the first page has a different footer than the remaining pages (do not
have the file name on the first page) - if that would matter.
