SYMPTOMS
When you use a STYLEREF field that references a style name and you open the document in a different language version of Word than the one it was created in, the following error message may appear, rather than the correct style reference:
The error message may appear in the language of the version of Word that is in use. For example, in the French version of Word, you may see the following:
CAUSE
The STYLEREF field references styles by name, and Word does not translate built-in style names to the language in use.
WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, do the following:
Change the StyleRef Field to Point to the Correct Style Name
- Display field codes by pressing ALT+F9.
- Change the reference to the correct name. For example, change STYLEREF "Titre 1" to STYLEREF "Heading 1" if you are converting from French Word to English Word.
- Press F9 to update the field.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.
