citation style

[a]

Hi all,

I have a question about Word 2007. I put some citations a document. There
are in English and my language. When I use APA style, Word 2007 will show
the last name of the author in the citation. However, I would like the first
name of the author to be shown if the cited document is written in my
language.

In short, I would like the citation to show either a firstname or a lastname
based on the language of the cited document.

Thank you.

Hi A.,

There are some limited locale/language modifications available in the Word 2007 Citations & Bibliography fields, but the Style sheet
that specifies the rules that are applied for a particular Reference style, such as APA would apply as to how the citation is
displayed in a document.

What are the languages you're working in (including is it English, U.S., U.K., etc)?

Are you referring to the entry you get from
References=>Insert Citation
or the formatting of the entry for the Citation that appears when you use
References=>Bibliography ?

What language name appears on the entry in
References=>Manage Sources
when you chose [Edit] ?
