Citation style
The best you can do is select the citation, choose Edit Citation from
the drop-down, check "Suppress Author" -- and type the author name outside the citation field, in the main text. Or, once your work is absolutely finalized, convert the citation(s) to plain text and move the parenthesis.

Citation style
Patience is a virtue. You don't have to ask the same question multiple
times, just wait till someone comes along who can answer it. the following is copy/pasted from my original reply There is no on/off switch for the brackets. Your choices are to either keep them, or remove them altogether. If you want to remove them for all instances, you will have to edit the style by hand. The short version: http://bibword.codeplex.com/wikipage?title=FAQ (especially 6 and 8 are useful) The long version (in case you don't know XSL): The styles are located in the winword.exe\Bibliography\Style directory. Assuming a normal 32-bit OS with a default Office 2007 installation, that directory is C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12\Bibliography\Style The style you want to edit is located in APA.XSL. Create a copy of the file and name it MyAPA.XSL. Open the file with a text editor (notepad, ...) and look for the following lines: xsl:when test="b:OfficeStyleKey" xsl:textAPA/xsl:text /xsl:when and change it to xsl:when test="b:StyleName" xsl:textAPA without brackets/xsl:text /xsl:when Now when you start Word, there will be an extra style in the dropdown list, labeled "APA without brackets". Next you want to remove the brackets. Look for xsl:if test="msxsl:node-set($ListPopulatedWithMain)/b:Citation/b:FirstAuthor" xsl:call-template name="templ_prop_OpenBracket"/ /xsl:if and remove it. This will remove the opening bracket. Then look for xsl:if test="/b:Citation/b:LastAuthor" xsl:call-template name="templ_prop_CloseBracket"/ /xsl:if and remove it. This will remove the closing bracket. You should be all set now. Yves -- BibWord : Microsoft Word Citation and Bibliography styles http://bibword.codeplex.com "Jonny99" wrote in message ...
