take an existing multiformat book from your collection & , via word, produce a filtered html file copy outside of calibre.
add this copy to calibre- it will appear as a new book with incorrect metadata, and will be stored as zip.
merge this with the original book.
I see calibre delete the 2nd book entry as instructed, then when I focus back on the 1st book I do not see ZIP in the available formats ( not until I close & restart calibre )

The steps of starting from a multiformat book in Word, saving as filtered HTML should have no effect. It's the existence of the ZIP that's all that should matter. I wrote the merge code and the content of the ZIP isn't even looked at. I tried a variety of tests with a ZIP file in a record being merged into another record that does not have a ZIP and could not reproduce this. If you can do this repeatedly, can you PM me the books in question in original and ZIP formats and let me try it. (I haven't tested on the latest Calibre - I'll test that as soon as I finish restoring my main machine - slight hardware problem)
