Prefix for multiple citatations
I would like to add a prefix for multiple citations in Word but I am unable to find out how to do it.
I found a post on this

But it is old, went off-topic and nowhere.
It is no problem to do this in LaTeX, e.g. via Biblatex's
\cites(multipre)(multipost)[pre][post]{key}[pre][post]{key}. . . `
Here using the (multipre) and (multipost) fields does the trick like a charm.
To be sure, this is about in text references, not the reference list. And, as mentioned in the post referenced above, using the per reference prefixes is not a good idea because they lead to incorrect results when the ordering of references changes. Nor is emitting parentheses because that destroys the auto-formatting when switching citation styles.

Unfortunately, when adding new items to a muti-citation that need to go to the front, I will always face the problem of having the wrong pre- and postfixes and need to take care of them manually. It would be much more convenient obviously to have the prefix fixed as with LaTeX. Maybe at some later point in time then.
