APA Formatting Software

Not sure if this is the right category, but does anyone know if there is APA writing assistant software that will work with Microsoft Word 2011?

Thanks!

There should be several such utilities. I would look for them at CNet Downloads or MacUpdate and also search on Google. One such is Scholar Word although I don't know if they have a current version. Another is StyleEase.

See if this APA style template from the source (MS) and works for you. It says Word 2007 and newer but I have not tried it. http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/templates/apa-style-TC030000052.aspx

YES!! Just last week StyleEase Software released both APA 6th Edition and MLA 7th Edition for the MAC for use with Word 2011. It does not however work with any Word 2008 or earlier editions.

You can download the product and/or order a CD Rom at at http://www.styleease.com/

I've installed this, but haven't had time to test. http://www.mendeley.com/ This is flexible as it allows for lots of formats.
I did this after EndNote failed to work in 2011, and lost references in my thesis in previous versions - very close call which I only noted on the day of submission.
