fix for APA 7

Your prof knows you are using Word, ask them how the prof would use the Word to get the format that they are demanding you comply with.

.

Don't use Word bibliography feature. You already know it is not up to date.  It won't be up to APA 7 until after you graduate ... <sigh>

.

What you are going to have to do is manual bibliography (aren't you glad to be using a powerful automation tool like word ... ), or use a 3rd party bibliography generator.  Here are links to a few I've heard of:

@ Generator- BibMe.ORG biliograph Generator – APA 7th, MLA 8th, Chicago 17th/Turabian, Sage Harvardhttps://www.bibme.org/apa

BibMe™ is an automated citation creator and bibliography generator. It can save you loads of time building and formatting your references, time that is understandably valuable and would be better served working on your paper. Don't want to spend countless hours typing in information about your educational references, or looking through the style manuals' rules? No problem! BibMe can find your source from external databases, fill in the information, and then accurately format the citation. Or, if you have the source in front of you, you can enter your entries in manually. Students can also learn how to properly cite their references by consulting the style manual guidelines (and plenty of example citations) on the "Citation Guide" page.

@ Generator- Citation And Bibliography Tools Beyond Word2019 05 29

https://office-watch.com/2019/citation-and-bibliography-tools-beyond-word/

Word’s Citation and Bibliography support is enough for some people, but not for everyone so there are tools available to go beyond what Microsoft provides.

JabRef is the commonly used, multi-platform tool for maintaining citations and bibliographies. It goes way past the primitive Microsoft Word features, in particular a web lookup component to grab all the details of a source.  In Word you have to manually look them up and paste into each field.****There are differences between BibTeX and the Word sources which are detailed at http://help.jabref.org/en/MsOfficeBibFieldMapping

@ Generator- **KnightCite**

https://www.calvin.edu/library/knightcite/?op=newCitation

MLA 8^th^ (2016), APA 6^th^ (2010), & Chicago 17^th^ (2017) and Turabian 9^th^ styles only.

KnightCite is an online citation generator service provided by the Hekman Library of Calvin College. This service simplifies the often tedious task of compiling an accurate bibliography in the appropriate style by formatting the given data on a source into a reliable citation, eliminating the need to memorize minute details of style for multiple kinds of sources. The service is provided free of charge by the college, and is available to members both within and outside of the Calvin community. There is no advertising on the site, and those who choose to register on the site will have the option of saving all of their citations and even multiple bibliographies to their account.

While there are currently several other citation services available on the web (some for free and others available at a cost), KnightCite was created in 2004 when comparably free and powerful enough tools were not available. The creators of KnightCite chose to develop a program for Calvin that could ensure both relevant and highly accurate results.

KnightCite is available to anyone and does not require an account. However, registration is free and offers additional features such as the ability to save citations and export them to a Word document.

Thank you for this information. I will share it with my professor and see if I may use one of the other citation management (bibliography generator) systems that you have mentioned.

Have a good day.

Don't count on a Microsoft moderator to read this post and submit a feature request. That's not what the moderators here do. You can submit a feature request at http://word.uservoice.com/. Before you do that, though, search for other similar suggestions. I suspect there will be at least several since Microsoft's lack of interest in keeping its bibliographic tools up to date is well documented. I am on record as saying that the tools for APA 7 may be available about the time APA 8 is published.

In the meantime, if you want your 10 points, you may have to create your bibliography manually.

Hi Susan,

As of the moment, the feature is not yet available. But it is a good thing that you have brought this matter in this forum. We have Microsoft moderators who review this community forum on a regular basis. I am sure that your suggestion can qualify for a feature request. It may not be soon but at least the first step has been taken.

Additionally, you can request for this feature via this link: https://outlook.uservoice.com/

Please let me know if you have further questions.

Other than that, have a great time ahead!

Sincerely,

Robert
