Default How to alter the number of authors in a citation before 'et al'?

Does any one know how to, or if it is possible to, alter the number of
authors listed in a citation before 'et al' is used? Word only seems to use
'et al' when there are 5+ authors cited.
Any help greatly appreciated!

It is possible but it requires some xslt knowledge.

The number of authors displayed depends on the style you are using. If you
post some more information on the style you are using, someone might be able
to point you in the right direction.

I am using the APA style and would like to change it so that a max of three
authors are cited before 'et al' is used.
