Adding a reference to text body with word 2003
I am wondering if this is possible, I would like to cite a reference
in the body e.g [1] and at the end have the references in full e.g [1] author, title, year e.t.c I am wondering if there is a way whereby, if I were to add an additional reference at the end, before or after my initial reference, if my initial reference of [1] will automatically change in the text body of my report? so e.g if I added another reference [2] but I added a third in front of reference [1] so it now becomes [2] if there is a way in word 2003 this automatic changes can take effect |

Adding a reference to text body with word 2003
The simplest way to do only this is to make them Endnotes. (That's if
the references are numbered strictly in the order they are mentioned in the text, as in *Science*.) If the bibliography is in alphabetical order, then format it as a numbered list, and insert the cross references to it into the text (so the first reference might be 15, and the second one 8). If you do it this way, and you add items to the bibliography as you need them so that numbering changes, you'll need to update your cross references by selecting the whole text (Ctrl-A) and updating (F9).

If you don't have copy of macros9.dot, you can download from
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=EN. This includes a footnote tool which I suspect will go a long way to providing what you want. If you insert footnotes/endnotes the numbering is automatically taken care of. You can also insert formatted cross references to footnotes. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Cashbackre wrote: I am wondering if this is possible, I would like to cite a reference in the body e.g [1] and at the end have the references in full e.g [1] author, title, year e.t.c I am wondering if there is a way whereby, if I were to add an additional reference at the end, before or after my initial reference, if my initial reference of [1] will automatically change in the text body of my report? so e.g if I added another reference [2] but I added a third in front of reference [1] so it now becomes [2] if there is a way in word 2003 this automatic changes can take effect |
