You have to “ copy” them into your ‘ current list‘ to work with it.

All the bibliographic sources in currently opened bibliographic XML file are displayed in the ‘ master list‘. So I tried to discover what happened and found that Office does NOT really imports bibliography into the “Sources.xml”, it allows you to work on currently opened XML only. But wait, where are my previous bibliographic sources? A copy of this file with the information altered and GUID, LCID deleted, just worked as imported bibliography. I was almost certain that Office will import a copy of this file without any problem. Obviously I had only one bibliographic source in the “Sources.xml”. I opened the XML file and here’s what I got (figure 1).įigure 1: Mircosoft Office 2007 Bibliographic Database Format If you use one or more of them in your document, all of them will be saved in “ C:\Documents and Settings\\Application Data\Microsoft\Bibliography\Sources.xml“. The very first thing I noticed is, if you add some references and don’t use them in the document they are not going be saved. I started adding some bibliographies in Microsoft Office Bibliography Editor.
