In the appendices to scientific literature, you often find a bibliography. This is a reference list of all the publications to which the author refers in this work.

Write has useful features that make it much easier for you to work with bibliographies.
The best way to use these features is as follows:
▪Step 1: First, you need a bibliography database. There, you enter all your cited sources. You can use the ribbon command References | Manage to select Create new database or Use existing database (an example is provided within the Ashampoo folder).
| The database can be constructed as desired, but must contain a field with a unique "abbreviation" for the source. There must also be fields for the author and title of the source. |
▪Step 2: Then choose the ribbon command References | Manage | Bibliography settings to open a dialog box and assign this database as a bibliography database to the document using the File button. In the dialog box, specify which database fields contain the abbreviation for cross-references, the author and the title.
▪Step 3: You can now insert references in the text to the sources entered in the bibliography database (for example, "As mentioned in [DNA1979], ...") using the ribbon command References | Insert field.
▪Step 4: At the end of the document, you can finally generate a bibliography with the ribbon command References | Generate. This lists all the records in the bibliography database for which you have inserted references into the text (see step 3).
