Corrupted field code

Hello,

I have recently received an error when adding a citation in Word. The error says 'A field code in this document is corrupted.'

I have followed the debugging instructions including copying/pasting, deleting parts of the document etc. but still can't find the troublesome field code. If anyone can help, I'd really appreciate it.

The Debug ID is D1474739570.

I am using Word 2013 with standalone 4.0.11
  • meaning that if you split the document in two parts, both of them show that message?
  • I split the doc into half, half again, half again etc. then found an area where the citation seems to be. Do I reveal codes then look for something specific here, replace the codes in this section or keep splitting down?
  • I'd say either - if you find something in the field codes that's faster, of course, but splitting down further will also get you down to one or two citations pretty quickly (as in - even with 1000 citations, you only need to split the doc 10 times)
