All that means is that you've input the field code incorrectly.

So they don't have to go over the whole document and do it themselves (as they have only basic Word knowledge)
Could you help me please?

The code you posted creates ordinary braces, not field braces, for both the outer field and the nested fields. For the reasons given in post #5, that won't work.
I'd suggest that, for macro purposes, you create a custom building block using a working copy of the field, then simply insert that where & when required. To see what would be required to turn the text representation in to a working field code, see
