    Essay Formatting tips

    I want to submit an essay next week. The essay should be formatted properly before submitting it. The university specified the essay format as MLA, but I don't have enough details about this format. Anyhow, I have written the essay collecting some details from [an essay writing service]. Now, only the formatting task is remaining. I need detailed description about this formatting method and how the word favors this formatting method. Please describe it.

    See: https://www.library.cornell.edu/research/citation/mla
    Do note that the MLA referencing format is one of those supported by Word. Simply input the relevant publication details into its bibliography/citation tools (see under References>Manage Source), then choose the MLA referencing format. If you then insert a citation into your document via the Insert Citation button, it should display with the correct format. Similarly, if you then insert a bibliography into your document via the Bibliography button, that too should display with the correct format.

    It never worked for any Excel version. Hardly surprising, since it's a Word question...
