Ms Word Features
Ms Word, a product of Microsoft Office, is the most used Word application due to its friendly user interface and quality documents, as well as sophisticated in-built features used in document creation. The creation of APA references and citations is more comfortable due to the in-built features. In creating a citation, click on the references tab, then on Citation and Bibliography group click on styles and choose APA. Click on where you want to place your citation on the document, click insert citation, then select Add New Source (np, 2019). In the Create Source dialog box that pops up, type details and click OK. For references, click where you need to insert a bibliography, typically, at the end of a document. On the References tab, in the Citations and Bibliography group, click Bibliography.
To create a Table of Contents (ToC), first format the document using the heading styles available on the Home tab. Click where the ToC should usually appear on a new page (Pinola, 2015). Click the References tab, then Table of Contents and choose among the options provided. Word’s in-built tools are helpful as they make the user experience easier and faster to create quality documents. However, if not properly operated, one may make a lot of errors in the text.
