Ccustomizing the output format of endnotes (references)?
Thanks Daiya ... that is helpful and unfortunately what I was afraid of. Is
there any way to show the reference as a [1] or (1)? instead of a superscript i or 1? Tim "Daiya Mitchell" wrote: Because Word doesn't offer this feature. The *only* thing Word does automatically that is specifically designed to help with citing references is to place footnotes/endnotes and number and re-number them. Word will not manipulate the text of references (change punctuation, abbreviations, etc) to fit a particular bibliographic style for you, and it is unlikely that MS will ever consider it profitable to incorporate these features. To automatically format notes or a bibliography with the information and punctuation appropriate to a particular bibliographic style, search the web for information on bibliographic management software. The big three (cross-platform) are EndNote, ReferenceManager, and ProCite, all owned by the same company and about US$100 with student discount€¹a web search may turn up cheaper alternatives, as many people do not need the full power of those three programs. If I misunderstood your question, and you want to change the format of the *numbers* that Word creates, be sure to state version and give a detailed example of what you hope will happen.

I would like to customize both the reference and citation into something different than the standard or the few options that exist. -- Daiya Mitchell, MVP Mac/Word Word FAQ: http://www.word.mvps.org/ MacWord Tips: http://word.mvps.org/Mac/WordMacHome.html What's an MVP?
