Works Cited page-again

J

Jeff

How do I set up a works cited page in MLA format but I can't
figure out how to do it in Word 2007.
In the references tab, it allows me to set up MLA however, works cited only
shows up at the end of the document, not it's own separate page.

I did download the Works cited MLA format template, but it adds it at the
end of the document also and I need a separate Works cited page.

There's nothing magical/special about the location. All it's doing is
inserting a content control that contains the title (Works Cited) and a
bibliography field. If it's going to the end of the document, then that's
because that's where the insertion point is when you insert it. You can
insert page breaks or section breaks (if you need different numbering)
before (or after, if needed up front) the bibliography to have it on a
separate page. Or, if you don't want to re-insert it, if you need it up
front -- as part of the front matter -- simply cut it from its current
location and paste it where you want it to go. Or, if the content control
makes you uncomfortable, just provide your own heading (Works Cited) and
insert the bibliography field (Ctrl+F9, type bibliography, then press F9),
wherever you want it to go (or, Bibliography.

what i needed-and I totally forgot about it.)
