Including citation in a text displays title

M

mediterraneum

Version: 2008 Operating System: Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) Processor: Intel When I try to include a citation from my list of citations into the text that I am editing (APA style), the text included has the following content "(Author, Title-blable-title, year)".

I need it, of course, to include "(Author, year)" only.

Please help. Thanks!

It probably does so because you have multiple works from the same author in
the same year. What you could do is suppress the title by hand. Click within
the citation. From the quick menu, select "Edit This Citation...". In the
dialog that appears, you can suppress the title.

Note that by itself, Word 2008 does not add the commonly used year suffices
in case you have multiple works from the same author in the same year.

Excellent, thank you. I was worried to edit the citation thinking it may change the source. Gratefully,
