Default InsertFile() with literature reference

Hello,

I have a problem with Word and the VBA Method InsertFile() and literature references.

When I insert a Word document with a link of literature references into an open document, the source references are lost.

For example: Selection.InsertFile (cDoc1.docx)

When I paste the references with Copy and Paste you will get it.

Any solution?

Best regards
Jürgen

Solution: use copy/paste or the FormattedText method. Neither of these will add references that have not been cited in the source document or displayed in it's bibliography, however.

Is this a bug in Word, that InsertFile() with literature reference loose the source references?

Copy and Paste is no alternative, because the document should not not be opened.

No, it's not a bug. It's just that different methods do different things.
