How to batch create cross references (for glossary, bibliography)

M

Hi Word Gurus,

I am in the process of writing a (long) thesis. It contains about 250
literature citations. These are inserted using Endnote X3. That software is
OK, but what it can not do, is automatically link the literature citations to
the bibliography section. However, I'd like to do that. In the text, there
are different citations that look like

(Lindenmayer, 2007) or
(Cook et al., 1986)

I would like to link every occurrence of these to the bibliography, so that
either

1. a cross reference directly to the related entry in the bibliography is
created or
2. at least the reader is referenced to the beginning of the bibliography
section.

Whatever is doable, but 1. would be my favorite. Can one do that in a batch
process? I would not want to do that by hand... I also have a glossary, with
the same problem. Ideally, I would like to use a VBA macro, that I give a
list of replacement words / word constructions, and that automatically
replaces every occurrence of the word / word construction with a
cross-reference. Is there such a macro (I am a computer scientist, so I guess
I could adapt something that is already existing to my needs, however, I'd
need a starting point) or a good piece of software to achieve this?

Any help is appreciated.

Cheers,
Bjoern

Hello,

Can you please help me with following problem. Looks like you have a solution already.

Problem:

1.1 this is a heading

In this random text I need to refer to above heading as cross reference. Once I click on it it should bring me to the heading.

Thanks much.
Pradeep
