In MS Word 2007, there is a little feature called: Insert Citation and build in Bibliography. It is very handy for me when I write my paper.

When I refer to the resource in my paper, I click Insert Citation, add the resource information. And in the end of the paper, I insert the built in Bibliography. Right click the Bibliography, click Update. The Bibliography information will automatically updated with alphabetical order.

I like it as it is automatically track the citation I used in the paper. Hopefully you see it is handy to you as well.

I couldn’t agree with you more. I’ve tried this and really enjoyed this design. Citation and Bibliography have always been the big issues which the researchers care about. This new design facilitates the whole writing process. I believe that everyone who has experienced this function will love it. =)

I’ve been using NeoOffice, a Mac-native version of Sun’s OpenOffice. It has a “bibliography database” which is not only incomprehensible, and poorly-documented, but also ships filled with what looks like someone else’s bibliography information that apparently got into the build. Five points to Microsoft.
