Word: Formatting fields

I found that even though I made my cross-references use the Hyperlink style, the font formatting disappeared when I refreshed the fields.

This page describes how to prevent that: http://www.quepublishing.com/articles/article.aspx?p=2027853&seqNum=5


  1. Right-click on the field and select Edit Field.
  2. Click Field codes (bottom left).
  3. Add this switch to the end of the field code:
  4. \* MERGEFORMAT
  5. Click OK.
