Write–N–Cite and Windows Vista
It’s recently come to our attention that the Write-N-Cite software used to format a bibliography does not work with Windows Vista. A Vista compatible version is in development, although there is not yet a release date for this.
In the meantime, users who want to create their bibliographies with RefWorks should do the following.
Inserting references- Log in in to your RefWorks account as normal, using your web browser (Internet Explorer or Firefox).
- View your references by clicking View then All References (or you can just select a specific folder to view only those references).
- Under the option Switch to:, select One line/Cite view.
- To insert a specific reference, find it in the list and click Cite.
- A Citation Viewer window appears with your reference enclosed in curly brackets, e.g. {{Jones, 2006}}.
- Click Select Citation.
- Press Ctrl and C on the keyboard or select Edit from the menu at the top of the screen, followed by Copy.
- Click the Clear button.
- Start your word processor (e.g. Word) and open the document into which you want to insert the reference.
- Place the cursor where you want the reference to be added and press Ctrl and V on the keyboard or select Edit from the menu at the top of the screen, followed by Paste.
- Repeat the above steps as necessary to insert further references.
Once you have inserted your references using the method above, you will need to create your bibliography. To do this:
- Within RefWorks, click on Bibliography
- Select the output style (e.g. Harvard) required by your department.
- Select the option Format paper and bibliography.
- Under Document to format, click the Browse button.
- Find the document you have created and double click it to select it.
- Click on the Create Bibliography button

Write N Cite
A user recently reported that although RefWorks was allowing them to login using their New Athens (AthensDA) details (these are the same as your normal PC login details), Write N Cite was prompting them for their old Athens password. If this happens to you, try the following:- At the screen labelled Athens Authentication Point, click on Alternative login
- On the screen Organisations who use Athens access management, click the + next to universities
- Click on University of Warwick, then click Go at the next screen (which has a green arrow on it).
You should now get the usual Warwick login page and be able to login using your standard computer username and password.
