AAA Format Bibliography
Reading the notes on custom biblographies, it seems like it is very hard to
select a style that is not included. AAA is very similar to Chicago, with a few minor changes. Do I need to convert to text every time to fix these details? Will Microsoft offer a AAA style option? http://www.aaanet.org/publications/guidelines.cfm |

AAA Format Bibliography
Hello,
Seeing that Microsoft hasn't released a new bibliography style since the original 10 where introduced 3 years ago, it is very doubtful that more will be released. And even if they are, it seems logical for them to first "serve" the big associations such AMA, ASA, MHRA, ... If you know some xslt, you could try to adapt the Chicago style yourself to fit your needs rather than start from scratch. If so, try to get hold of a copy of the style from Word 2008 (Mac) rather than Word 2007 (Windows) as the former one contains at least some documentation. It's still going to be a lot of work, but it will be a lot easier. If you don't want to do that, it is best to wait till you entered all reference and your bibliography into your text. Then, convert them all to static text (click on the arrow which appears on top of each of them as you go over them) and adjust them to your needs. That way, they can't get updated anymore and you won't loose your manual editing.
