Reference management

References in Word are stored on your computer's hard disk. If you want to work on them on another computer, follow these steps to find the file:

• type% APPDATA% to the Start menu search box
• click the folder Roaming > Microsoft > Bibliography
• the references are saved in the XML file Sources

Microsoft Word has a simple built-in reference function in the References tab. Here you can manually enter references and refer to them in the text and create a bibliography. This built-in function is good if you have a limited number of references, and you do not need access to your references on different computers.

Word's built-in citation function doesn't support APA 7 style.
