Hi Mr. Andrew
Excuse me, Dear Andrew, today I applied your code to my entire thesis and I get unexpected results in chapter 4 of my thesis. Firstly, I thought the problem is only with this chapter, but after applying, using different documents, analyzing the problem. Consequently, I have reached the underlying problem.


To clarify, your code works fine for a single occurrence of any cross-references in any chapter, but for second or more occurrences of the same cross-references, it can not deal with them and convert them to a closed parenthesis, see below screenshot

Look when applying your code, what happens

Additionally, when making a right-click on the number of the cross-reference that has multiple occurrences in the document and making update field, the number of cross-reference gone and appear as closed parenthesis like (), as below

For this reason, I get this problem in chapter 4, because I use the same cross-reference many times in my paragraphs.

So, can you fix this problem please with special thanks Mr. Andrew?
The code is amazing and I don't want to leave it.

You can download the attachment file for applying to it.
