Thanks, Ross.

That was plunge into the deep end of the pool! I gave it try, nevertheless, and was still searching the log for the extraneous comma when Qing Lee's message came in, a virtual life-saver for a poor swimmer. <g>

The following does not produce expected results. There is an *extraneous comma*

The book is 99.5% typeset so it is not practical to switch away from memoir at 
this point. If there is a way to use Chinese fonts without using xeCJK, I could 
try that. Any ideas how to get rid of that extraneous comma?
First you need to find out where it is coming from.
Inserting \tracingall (within a group {...} to limit the scope)
will produce lots of output in the .log  or Console window.

You should be able to search this to find where the extra comma
is inserted, then follow backwards the various macro-expansions
that caused this.

Once the source is located, you should be able to make a single
macro re-definition in your document preamble, to prevent
the behaviour that you do not want.


This may seem a rather tedious way to tackle the problem,
but it is reliable and very instructive for solving such
delicate problems, if you are interested in programming.
— Not everyone's cup of tea, though.

Thanks!

Jon
