format for Bibliography in APA format
Can anyone please tell me how to format my paper so that the 2nd line of the
bibliography is indented, according to APA format, in Word 2007? Every time that I try to indent the 2nd line of each of my references, Word wants to also indent the previous line. I am getting marked down on my grade because of this, so I need a fast fix! Thanks, Laura |

Use a hanging indent.

That's what I used in Word 2003, but now that you can create your references
in the APA format, the bibliography page is already automated. Is the best bet not to use this feature then? Thanks. "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: Use a hanging indent. -- Suzanne S.

Sorry, I'm not using Word 2007 yet, so I can't answer this; perhaps someone
else can. -- Suzanne S.

Hi,
Other than manually changing Word's bibliography style file (i.e. the .XSL file) the only thing I can think of is, finish your paper, update the bibliography to its final version, then change the paragraph formatting to a hanging indent (e.g. 20pt).
