Usefulness (and availability) of Word2007 templates for APA 6th

EndNote EndNote General
1

I’m a doctoral candidate evaluating EndNote X3 with Word2007, and find that the only templates available for APA are for the (now obsolete) 5th edition.  I assume that the templates for APA 6th will eventually be forthcoming.

  • Are the templates generally userful and accurate?
  • Can we expect them any time soon?

 Thanks for your input.

Template, definitely!  I’ve downloaded & installed the 6th ed. style files. They seem to work as advertised for citations & references. The template(s) would-if well done–be a big help with all the little nit-picky changes in APA 6 (e.g., new hierarchy & styles for headings, changes in punctuation).

Thanks, Leanne -

Hope there’s somebody out there who can help. I got a bit spoiled by a much less expensive product (APA Perrla) which included a very accurate APA 5 template (done as cascading style sheets in Word, I believe).  I’m sure it can be done from within Word, but i’m a bear of very little brain!

Hey man, I saw your post, and I happen to have this – Hope it helps.  I don’t even remember where I got it!

Good luck,

well guess what they don’t allow .dot files as attachments on this website — How about you give me your email address and I’ll shoot it to ya?

Hi

 Do you have a Word 2007 Template which is compatible with APA 6th Edition and EndNote X3?

I’m no longer using EndNote, but Steve’s template (attached above) is pretty good.  Just download & change the file extension from .ens to .dot.

Good luck
