How do I change parenthesis to brackets in citations?

The ISO style in citations uses parenthesis and numerical references - e.g
(1) or (2). We prefer to use brackets - e.g. [1] or [2] to discriminate them
from acronym references. Can I change the formatting style from a parenthesis
to a bracket? or can I create a new citation style?

Yes and yes.

The bibliography formatting guidelines are stored in xslt files. Those xslt
files convert the xml sources into html which is then processed by Word.

If the only thing you want is to change the brackets in ISO 960 - Numerical
Reference, try

If you want more information on how to change brackets yourself, see
http://bibword.codeplex.com/wikipage?title=FAQ#Q6 . The page also contains
information about deriving new styles from existing styles.
