APA is a widely used style. It is a kind of formatting standard. APA stands
for American Psychological Association which has a standard formatting style.

Well PK, you can go through following article and can create a new style in
word according to the formatting mentioned in this article and then save this
style as APA. So that if you want to use this style in future, simply select
the text and apply that style
