Default Problem with citations

Yes, that is very possible. Thanks so much for the suggestion. I'll check
it out.

Citation fields are locked to prevent manual edits from users as manual
changes are lost when the field gets updated. (A rather unfortunate design
decision.)

Is it possible that when trying to insert a Works Cited page, the cursor was
still in a citation field? That could cause the described behaviour.

Hi,
My class was working on citations and Works Cited pages today, and two of
them had the same problem. The citation appeared, but the Works Cited
page
did not. We tried to generate the Works Cited page, but it didn't work.
We
had an error message that read in part "selection is locked." We are not
using a trial version, nor are the documents protected. The only way I
could
get around it is to delete the citation and do them again.

Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks
