Here are some things you could try:
- Check the field code for errors: Make sure the location specified in the field code is correct and that there are no typographical errors.
- Update the field code: If you are using an older version of Word, the field code may not be compatible with the newer version. Try updating the field code to the current version's syntax with the https://puritynourish.com/category/nutrition/.
- Try to remove the field code and re-insert it: Select the field code, press "Delete" and then go to "Insert" -> "Quick Parts" -> "Field" and re-insert the field.
- Try to open the document in compatibility mode: Go to "File" -> "Open" and select the document, then click on "Options" -> "Advanced" and tick on "Confirm file format conversion on open" and then open the document in "Word 97-2003" mode.
- SowatJan 20, 2023Copper ContributorGood suggestions all, 1. Location is fine, I've used both relative and absolute paths. 2. I've done it. 3. and 4. I suspect that you are not using a Mac as my sequence is 3. Insert>Field>select code and 4. Open>gives 2 options (Original and Repair). There used to be a compatibility mode on the Mac, but that has long disappeared. Maybe I should try a PC version and put it in compatibility mode and see if that solves the problem.
My one discordant item is that when I go into properties, under "Content" it say "Title" "Chapter 3" and that I can't seem to edit and is not part of any text.
