How can I make a custom bibliography style?
Hi Adam,
This can be done by means of the \m switch (http:// office.microsoft.com/en-us/word/HA102157071033.aspx). Place your mouse on a citation, right click and select "Edit field...". You will be presented with a window in which you can add the extra sources by means of there tags. Something like "CITATION XYZ05 \l 1033" will be already filled in. All you have to do, is change it into "CITATION XYZ05 \m ABC06 \m KLM07 \l 1033".

SaulG Hi, The easiest way, without having to dig into the XSLT, is to just change the indentation of all the cells in a column to whatever you want. For example, if you were to select the column with numbers (first column), you then have to click the arrow at the bottom of the paragraph ribbon on the home tab. In the window that pops up, you can then set 'Right' under indentation to something like '0,2 cm'. That will change the white space between the numbers and the text.

How can I make a custom bibliography style?
Yves -- this is great help, thank you. The () -- [] requirement is common in
my experience in technical academic research. I'm really surprised that square brackets was not the default or a switch allowed this transformation, but I expect Word ran with whatever was the official standard. It is not de facto common practice though. I really hope your help is made more prominent in due course, e.g. in the on-line help for Word, because it took quite a while to find it in here!

How can I make a custom bibliography style?
Hello, I have been reading this string of posts and I think that maybe
someone here might be able to help me. I need to alter the APA style to the LSA style. They are pretty much the same except Word 2007 keeps truncating some author's first names, and putting parentheses aroung the date. I am pretty sure there is a limit on the string length for the author's name that might be increased but I have no idea where to look for it. I have no clue how to fix the parentheses issue.

Thanks this did the trick; it is working great!!!! One other quesiton that
you might be able to help with. When there are two authors for some source the second is always listed as LAST, FIRST but I want it the other way around. For example: Smith, John and Jane Doe. 2020. etc. not Smith, John and Doe, Jane. 2020. etc. I tried to make some adjustments in the (formatSecondaryName) part of the code but nothing changed.

How can I make a custom bibliography style?
formatSecondaryName is for a possible second group of contributors to
a work (for example in book sections) not for the second (or further) person of the main contributors. I suggest adding a template "formatMainAuthorAfterFirst" to the stylesheet. As the name suggests, it describes how to format the main author after the first person. Since you want first name followed by last name, the template would look something like this: xsl:template name="formatMainAuthorAfterFirst" xsl:call-template name="formatNameCore" xsl:with-param name="FML" xsl:value-of select="'%F %M %L'"/ /xsl:with-param xsl:with-param name="FM" xsl:value-of select="'%F %M'"/ /xsl:with-param xsl:with-param name="ML" xsl:value-of select="'%M %L'"/ /xsl:with-param xsl:with-param name="FL" xsl:value-of select="'%F %L'"/ /xsl:with-param xsl:with-param name="upperLast"no/xsl:with-param xsl:with-param name="withDot"yes/xsl:with-param /xsl:call-template /xsl:template Currently, a set of main authors is formatted using the following code: xsl:template name="formatPersonsAuthor" xsl:if test="string-length(b:Corporate)=0" xsl:for-each select="b:NameList/b:Person" xsl:if test="position() = 1" xsl:call-template name="formatMainAuthor"/ /xsl:if xsl:if test="6 = position() and position() != 1" xsl:call-template name="formatMainAuthor"/ /xsl:if xsl:call-template name="formatPersonSeperatorMain"/ /xsl:for-each /xsl:if xsl:if test="string-length(b:Corporate)0" xsl:value-of select="b:Corporate"/ /xsl:if /xsl:template Here you can see that Microsoft already thought of people who want their second person displayed differently from their first. The second 'if' statement (xsl:if test="6 = position() and position() != 1") indicates how the persons 2 to 6 should be handled. In the above code, they should be handled just like the first person. So here you can call your newly defined template instead of the old one. Hence you would change the code from: xsl:if test="6 = position() and position() != 1" xsl:call-template name="formatMainAuthor"/ /xsl:if into: xsl:if test="6 = position() and position() != 1" xsl:call-template name="formatMainAuthorAfterFirst"/ /xsl:if Regards, Yves On 4 sep, 19:49, chrog wrote: Thanks this did the trick; it is working great!!!! *One other quesiton that you might be able to help with. *When there are two authors for some source the second is always listed as LAST, FIRST but I want it the other way around.

The parentheses around the year are put there during the declaration of the "enclosedYearDot" variable by the following code (located around line 5039): xsl:variable name="enclosedYearDot" xsl:if test="string-length($year)0" xsl:call-template name="templ_prop_APA_GeneralOpen"/ xsl:value-of select="$year"/ xsl:call-template name="templ_prop_APA_GeneralClose"/ xsl:call-template name="templ_prop_Dot"/ /xsl:if /xsl:variable By removing the calls to templ_prop_APA_GeneralOpen and templ_prop_APA_GeneralClose you will remove the brackets. So you would get: xsl:variable name="enclosedYearDot" xsl:if test="string-length($year)0" !--xsl:call-template name="templ_prop_APA_GeneralOpen"/-- xsl:value-of select="$year"/ !--xsl:call-template name="templ_prop_APA_GeneralClose"/-- xsl:call-template name="templ_prop_Dot"/ /xsl:if /xsl:variable Note that right under the declaration of enclosedYearDot, enclosedDateDot and enclosedDateEmptyDot are declared. They put 'entire' dates between brackets. So you also might want to change those if you don't want brackets around any date. The name of one of the main contributors to a work is formatted as follows: xsl:template name="formatMainAuthor" xsl:call-template name="formatNameCore" xsl:with-param name="FML" xsl:call-template name="templ_prop_APA_MainAuthors_FML"/ /xsl:with-param xsl:with-param name="FM" xsl:call-template name="templ_prop_APA_MainAuthors_FM"/ /xsl:with-param xsl:with-param name="ML" xsl:call-template name="templ_prop_APA_MainAuthors_ML"/ /xsl:with-param xsl:with-param name="FL" xsl:call-template name="templ_prop_APA_MainAuthors_FL"/ /xsl:with-param xsl:with-param name="upperLast"no/xsl:with-param xsl:with-param name="withDot"yes/xsl:with-param /xsl:call-template /xsl:template with the following definitions (which you can't change directly): templ_prop_APA_MainAuthors_FML = %L, %f %m templ_prop_APA_MainAuthors_FM = %f %m templ_prop_APA_MainAuthors_ML = %L, %m templ_prop_APA_MainAuthors_FL = %L, %f where lower case characters stands for initials and upper case characters for the full name part. So if you don't want any of the main authors names abbreviated, you could change the routine into: xsl:template name="formatMainAuthor" xsl:call-template name="formatNameCore" xsl:with-param name="FML" xsl:value-of select="'%L, %F %M'"/ /xsl:with-param xsl:with-param name="FM" xsl:value-of select="'%F %M'"/ /xsl:with-param xsl:with-param name="ML" xsl:value-of select="'%L, %M'"/ /xsl:with-param xsl:with-param name="FL" xsl:value-of select="'%L, %F'"/ /xsl:with-param xsl:with-param name="upperLast"no/xsl:with-param xsl:with-param name="withDot"yes/xsl:with-param /xsl:call-template /xsl:template Once again, note that there is also a formatting routine for secondary authors right beneath it (formatSecondaryName) which you might want to change as well to your preferred format.

How can I make a custom bibliography style?
Hi Yves,
Thanks for your awesome code! I was just wondering...when I hit the 'insert citation' button, all my references in the main text are reference [1] even though they are sorted and numbered correctly in the actual bibliography at the end. Any help would be appreciated. THANKS! S "Nandha" wrote: A million thanks to you Yves. It was released 2 days ago, i didn't relize it. It is actually perfect, i was mistaken to understand your words at that time. I realized that what i want is just like this, the number to apear in order and the bibliography apear as its appearance in the document. Once again thank you sooo much PS : i tried to understand the XSL file, bleeeh its not easy isn't it, too complex "p0" wrote: On 19 jun, 09:56, Nandha wrote: Dear Yves, i think sorting is better than nothing, and my option would go to the first one [1] xyz abc (with abc being under xyz) so this means that i cannot put numbers in thecitation( i have to do it manually )?, because in the chicago style, it will put (names, years) instead of (index number) basically forcitationi would like to use the numbered ISO, but for thebibliographyi would like to use the chicago style with number, but any of that improvement is fine by me. Because i already got the answer, no matter what we will have to edit it manually in the end. Thank you Yves PS : I gave up writing my thesis using LATEX because of time limit (don't have much time to make a template), so i will use WYSIWYG like word instead, but i am beginning to like word cause you can work with script using visual studio, also. Dear Nandha, If you check the numbered ISO style (ISO 690 - Numerical Reference) you will see that the entries in the bibliography at the bottom are not sorted by name but rather by their position as in-text citation. This is the only way you can use numbers as references in Word 2007. http://www.codeplex.com/bibliography...eleaseId=14597 will do partially what you want. By removing the sorting rule (as explained on the release notes) you will have your bibliography in order. So if you then convert both your bibliography and your in-text citations to static text, you will just have to do a find, replace operation to change every [x] into an [y]. LaTeX also has WYSIWYG-editors, for example LEd (http:// www.latexeditor.org/). It is just that some projects stubbornly refuse to build them in reasoning that you do not need them to verify the layout. BR, Yves |

How can I make a custom bibliography style?
Hi S,
By the sound of it, I'm guessing the in-text citation fields are not updated. Once you finished your text, go to the bibliography style selection dropdown box and select the style you want again. That way, all CITATION and BIBLIOGRAPHY fields in your text will be updated. Yves On 9 sep, 22:46, S wrote: Hi Yves, Thanks for your awesome code!
