Thanks Yves. Your suggestion was effective to remove the brackets in
APA-style..
Now my university professor can't complain about it anymore :-).

Is it also possible to rename this modified APA-style in Word 2007, so
that I can use besides the original APA-style?
A simple "replace" of the APA-term in APA-without brackets doesn't give
useful results.

Medioman

BTW: Cool website == http://bibword.codeplex.com

Yes. But it requires the editing of XSLT files.

The output of the APA style is created by APA.XSL locate in the
winword.exe\Bibliography\Style folder.

The decision on to put a leading and/or closing bracket depends on the
availability of the FirstAuthor and LastAuthor element.

Open bracket:

xsl:if
test="msxsl:node-set($ListPopulatedWithMain)/b:Citation/b:FirstAuthor"
xsl:call-template name="templ_prop_OpenBracket"/
/xsl:if

Close bracket:

xsl:if test="/b:Citation/b:LastAuthor"
xsl:call-template name="templ_prop_CloseBracket"/
/xsl:if

If you don't want the brackets to display, you can leave those two code
sections out.

Hello Office 2007 users,

Is it possible to remove the standard brackets when inserting a citation
in your main text?
I would like like to add the APA-style in the following way == e,g.:
Peterson, 2007 instead of (Peterson, 2007)
The style withouth redundant brackets would be desirable in my
footnotes.

Thanks in advance!
