Maybe the Microsoft Office Team should add it in a future update. Then it is pointless to use the built-in refence->bibliography linking feature if you cannot use it for them all. I couldn't find it for the life of me, but totally thought it should be there.įor something that costs money and is put on most Windows computers it doesn't have this flexibility? Word does not do non-bracketed references. Instead Word inserts all as per the specs for the first reference only - in brackets. Microsoft's implementation does not conform to APA - and never has. Six or more authors: Cite only the first author’s surname, followed by ‘et al.’ in-text and in brackets. Use ‘and’ between the last two authors in your sentence preceded by a comma, but use an ‘&’ Three to Five authors: Name all authors in your first in-text reference, but use ‘et al.’ after the first author's surname in subsequent references. Use ‘and’ between authors, but use an ‘&’ when in brackets. Two authors: Cite both surnames every time the reference occurs in text. One author: Write only the author’s surname in-text and in brackets.
