Word - References

I want to know is there a way to import Reference Library (i.e. what is the file format they have to be saved in?)? Or instead of entering all the information in the 'Insert citation' option - is there antoher way to create citation and manage them?

i.e. similar to using the Endnote reference management software, and being able to import citations or save them in a specific format so it can be opened in Word.

RE: Word - References

Hi Jessica

Thank you for your question - it looks like it is technically possible although not necessarily easy.

I found a related article that describes exporting and importing Citations using XML

http://www.gilsmethod.com/transfer-word-2007-word-2010-citations-computers

The only downside is that unless the citations have been created in Word and exported you will have to create a correctly formatted XML file to store the information.

Let me know if you have any further questions,

Kind regards,
Andrew

Word tip:

Shortcut keys to show non-printing characters

The Show/Hide button can be used in Word to show non-printing characters in your document.

The shortcut keys for revealing non-printing characters are Ctrl + Shift + the 8/* button above the alpha keys on the keyboard.

Holding down the same combination of keys hides non-printing characters again.
