citing sources

Is there a way to select and copy a passage from one of my resources, and have the bibliographic info automatically appear when I paste it into a blank document?

By this I assume you want more than a footnote? If so, that isn't a feature in Logos. Footnotes appear, but you probably know this already.

For example, if I copy the following from A. W. Pink's The Interpretation of the Scriptures, pg. 7:

"MAN is notoriously a creature of extremes, and nowhere is that fact more evident than in the attitude taken by different ones to this subject."

...will a footnote or something automatically be generated in the document where I paste such a quote, showing that it comes from page 7 of The Interpretation of the Scriptures?

Keith,

It certainly will. It can generate a footnote in a number of standard styles, which you get to select from under Program Settings.

It might not work if you copy into a not-well known program. It works just fine in MS Word.

Wow! That is so neat. It didn't work in Open Office, but it does in MS Works.

Thanks alot for the help Mark. I Just upgraded to Logos4 last nite. I was new to Lib3 to begin with, but even I can see that the difference going from Lib3 to Logos 4 is astounding.

God bless!
