Embedded citations are not supported in the text of a text exhibit.

Embedded citations are supported in the memo field of an event tag. You need
to move your text to the memo field of an event tag.

You can continue to maintain and edit your history in Word. When you update
it, just copy it into the event tag memo replacing the current text.
