Cross Referencing a reference?!
I am making a technical document where I need to insert references (
references to papers / books I used ). How can I use the cross referencing feature to refer to those documents within the text? To make myself clear, here is an example of what I need to make: " This was explained in [1],[2]" i should have a reference at the end of the document which is smthg like this: " [1] reference 1 [2] reference 2 " Thanks |

These are footnotes or endnotes depending whether you want them at the end
of the page or the end of the document. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org elbadry wrote: I am making a technical document where I need to insert references ( references to papers / books I used ).

Cross Referencing a reference?!
Thanks for the reply.
I think endnotes may do but I still have a problem. When I choose endnote, word creates an footnote-like border at the end of the page. This is not what I need. I need the reference to be written as normal text ( not as a page footer ) Thanks "Graham Mayor" wrote: These are footnotes or endnotes depending whether you want them at the end of the page or the end of the document. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org elbadry wrote: I am making a technical document where I need to insert references ( references to papers / books I used ).

Cross Referencing a reference?!
If you've chosen endnotes, then you shouldn't be getting notes at the bottom
of the page, except at the end of a section if you've chosen to put them at the ends of sections, and in that case they should still be starting directly below the text. Wherever they are, however, you can modify the Endnote Separator (and particularly the Endnote Continuation Separator, which you'll want to lose entirely).

Cross Referencing a reference?!
Hi elbadry,
I think what you're looking for is the NOTEREF field, which is designed to cross-reference footnotes and endnotes. You'll find it under Insert|Field.
