create a database from which bibliography an be created

[MeAngelMom]

How do I create a database from which a bibliography can be added to the end
of a Word document?
I used the program RefManager, but that is too expensive for me to update.
Does Word 2003 have such a program?
Thanks

Not natively.

Have you checked your academic institution? They might have campus licenses
which students can use at home.

You could give Zotero a spin (www.zotero.org). Personally, I don't like it,
but that's just me.

Word 2007 comes with referencing capabilities, but they are limited in
functionality. Anything special you want, you would have to add it yourself
on top of the functionality. The good part is, it's extendable, the bad part
is, it isn't all that straightforward to do.

"NOT FOUND the requested url /www.zotero.org was not found on this
server"

(Whence the opening slash?)

I'll try typing it directly into IE.

Someone reported the same problem finding Graham's site the other day but
was looking for /www.gmayor.com. I suspect that the portal through which the
poster is accessing the messages is messing up the URLs. It is always
worthwhile, I think, to quote a full URL (i.e., http://www.zotero.org) to
avoid this problem.

Oh. It's a Firefox extension.
