I am glad to find that this is a reported problem as I had it happen to me
twice in 1 document, didn't notice it and ended up having to check every
reference out of 200! Maybe I have a slow computer (or possibly it is
because I use windows!), but I find I get crashes and out of memory errors
when I work with a large formatted document. Consequently my fix (on advice
from coworkers) is to work with an unformatted doc and only format it when
finished and I am sure that there are no references to change.
Regards
Alison Gunn

That's interesting. You're right it's been reported before for en.7 (and
doesn't seem to happen in en.8.0.2). The problem seems to arise when you
reformat two references into a single one; e.g., when you have {Smith 1999
#450} ... {Taylor 2002 #248} and delete the intervening material (or insert
the second one in or next to the first) so CWYW picks up the two citations
and decides to join them together as {Smith 1999 #450;Taylor 2002 #248}.
To stop the problem happening again, in other words, avoid doing exactly
this.
If you need to combine two separate references, first delete them, and then
reinsert them simultaneously from endnote.
If you notice immediately when it has re-arranged your references, you can
use word's undo feature (use the drop-down arrow, as you need to undo
several hudred actions) to get your document back to how it was. You need to
go all the way back to the last "update fields" entry, and the number of
actions depends on the complexity and number of your citations.
