Edit or format a table of authorities entry

The feature or some of the options described in this Help topic are only available if support for English (U.S.), Canadian French, or Dutch is enabled through Microsoft Office Language Settings.

When you mark a table of authorities entry, Microsoft Word inserts a TA (Table of Authorities Entry) field. To change a table of authorities entry, you need to modify the text in the table of authorities entry field.

  1. If you don't see the TA fields, click Show/Hide Paragraph mark Button image on the Standard toolbar.
  2. Find the TA field for the entry that you want to modify.
  3. To edit or format a table of authorities entry, change the text inside the quotation marks.

    { TA \l "Baldwin v. Alberti, 58 Wn. 2d 243 (1961)" \s "Baldwin v. Alberti" \c 1 \b }

  4. To update the table of authorities, click to the left of the table of authorities and press F9.

Note  Don’t modify the table of authorities entries in the finished table of authorities; otherwise, the next time you rebuild the table of authorities, your changes will be lost.
