Edit a citation
Is it possible to edit a citation once it is in the document? I can see where I may need to do this if I check page numbers and need to correct.
Thanks!

Yes, You should be able to edit your citations after you put them in word using the plug-in, your citations are also editable if you export them to RTF files or to your clipboard. Are you having any difficulty doing this?
1. After inserting a citation, everything you type after that gets the gray color and if you Refresh the text disappears.
2. How can I edit the citation to be form (Smith, 2003)... to Smith (2003), asuming I type Smith.
At present, as alternative citation formats aren't available, I think if you need anything other than the plain in-text format, then with the OO plugin, the best bet seems to be to use the Bookmarks rather than ReferenceMarks method, and edit the in-text citation manually. I don't know if there's an equivalent with the Word plug-in.
For edit words after citation, without gray colour, you can type an Enter. New line isn't gray. Edit, and make after a single line.
