I did solve the problem with MSWord Print Merge  and Xref 1.2:

1. I modified Xref 1.2 so that it writes BibHeader to file "my thesis.merge"
   at first. The BibHeader is in the Xref stack as field "BibHeader"
   with ;-characters between fields
2. Modified Xref 1.2 to write to file "my thesis.merge" ;-characters 
   between fields

3. Modified BibSection so, that there is only line
   <<DATA my thesis.merge>><<include ...>>
   So, MS Word does not bomb in DATA statement (if I use ";" it bombs, if I use
   "," between parameters for DATA, it does not work)

This problem has something to do with Mac System national special character 
replacement (or how should I call it?). Here we must use ";" and not ","
in formulas and many other places in MS Word (!).
