Harvard Referencing
Depends on whether you know what Harvard referencing is, and
whether you have 10 references or 1,000 references. peter wrote: What is the easiest way to use Harvard Referencing in Word. |

Harvard Referencing
We have just been shown at college how to use it and i will probably have no
more than between 50-100, from a range of sources such as books, journals and the internet. just wondered if there was an easy way to keep track as i was going along rather than trying to add them all when i finished, which could be several weeks later.

Harvard Referencing
Word doesn't really have any built-in support for the Harvard
style of references. There are some good third-party bibliography programs such as Endnote, Reference Manager, and ProCite that support this function within Word, but they are somewhat expensive and have a somewhat steep learning curve. In my humble opinion, they don't save you *that* much time when you're dealing with only 50-100 references, even if you are proficient with the software. If I were you, I would just create a blank page at the end of your paper and start listing cited references alphabetically there. By the time you're done, the references list might be 6 or 7 pages long, but that's not so hard to navigate through to add/edit/delete references. peter wrote: We have just been shown at college how to use it and i will probably have no more than between 50-100, from a range of sources such as books, journals and the internet. just wondered if there was an easy way to keep track as i was going along rather than trying to add them all when i finished, which could be several weeks later.

Dear Garfield,
thx for clarifying that the most common reference system (Harvard) is NOT provided for, do you know by any chance whether any university or any good soul has written some addin that one could download?

American editors/publishers do not know a style called "Harvard
style." What reference manual do you consult for the details? On Aug 18, 3:50 pm, Malvasia wrote: THX YVES, for all your work, Leeds Harvard should do!

can you create a reference from just typing the reference in a particular way?

Not sure what the question is ... with the Word2007 bibliography tool,
the only way to get any flexibility is by plunging into XML programming, which Yves = p0 will assure you is perfectly simple. If you simply ignore the bibliography tool, which isn't ready for serious use by scholars, you do indeed create a reference in a document by typing it. (And then you can copy/paste or drag'n'drop it ad infinitum, which might even be easier than using a bibliography tool, if you pretty much only ever use a single style.)

can you create a reference from just typing the reference in a particular way? Not directly from within Word. The "normal" solution is to add the input through the GUI. If you don't like the order of the elements in the input form, you can change it to fit your needs. You can even extend the number of elements for each type (although styles might not now how to handle those new fields). Alternatively, you can add a source programmatically. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb676880.aspx contains an example on how to do so. But even here you have to follow some specified XML format. Unless you wrote some kind of converter between your format and the XML format (which is going to be extremely hard in my opinion), your best option is using the original input form.
