Hi Paul,

Without seeing your macro, I can't really comment on why it might be doing that.

Adding \* M is completely independent from my cross reference macros which work like a charm.
I stumpled upon this 'feature' it when applying the field solution (
https://www.msofficeforums.com/word/...est-empty.html) to my table.
When creating tables I often have to change table formatting until it fits my formatting ideas. Whenever I apply character formatting, the \* M switch is added to the { REF } fields. So I changed \* M to \*C, thought everything was fine and continued working. But Word still keeps inserting the \* M switch resulting in: { REF Text1 \* CHARFORMAT \* MERGEFORMAT }.
As soon as the \* M switch is inserted, the \* C switch becomes ineffective.
In the case of my table (and field formatting) it really does not matter, it is (was) more a sort of basic question.
