Actually, I think this is a massive improvement and avoids the problem with cross-references. This one changes the number format of the field itself so the brackets are part of the field itself.
Code:
Sub AppendixParensIntegrated()

    Dim oStory As Range, oFld As Field, iCount As Integer, aRng As Range
    On Error Resume Next
      For Each oStory In ActiveDocument.StoryRanges
        For Each oFld In oStory.Fields
          If oFld.Type = wdFieldSequence Then
            If oFld.Code Like "*Table*" Then
              oFld.Code.Text = "SEQ Table \# ""(#)"" "
              iCount = iCount + 1
            End If
          End If
        Next oFld
      Next
      ActiveDocument.Fields.Update
    Set oFld = Nothing
    Set oStory = Nothing
    On Error GoTo 0
    MsgBox iCount & " instances bracketed.", vbOKOnly, "Macro complete"
End Sub
