4 Click Apply to commit your changes and keep working in the Dictionary Editor
dialog box, or click OK to both commit your changes and close the dialog box.
The Perfect Authority dictionary displays customized citation-type entries in
bold formatting, to help you distinguish them from the default entries.
Give it a try!
If you followed the “Give it a try!” exercise on page 4 or page 5 to create a table of
authorities for a sample document, take a moment to compare this table of authorities
against the one in your original document. Are any citation-type entries missing from
your new table of authorities?
Consider the following citation:
See In re Walat, 87 Bankr. 408, 412-13 (Bankr. E.D. Va.), aff'd, 89 Bankr. 11
(E.D. Va. 1988)
This citation contains the nonstandard Service Reporter “Bankr.” — but you can easily
add missing citation-type entries such as this to the Perfect Authority dictionary.
If you want to try out this exercise on a sample document that contains no
nonstandard citation-type entries, simply insert the above citation example
into your document, and then add the Service Reporter “Bankr.” as a citation-
type entry using the exercise that follows.
1 Click the Perfect Authority button on the WordPerfect toolbar.
The main Perfect Authority window appears.
2 Click Dictionary Editor.
The Dictionary Editor dialog box appears.
3 Click the Citations tab, and add the missing citation-type entries. (For the above
citation example, you would add “Bankr.” as a Service Reporter entry, making
sure to include the period in “Bankr.” in the entry name.)
Your new entries appear in the Entry Name list box (in bold formatting).
4 Click OK to commit your changes and close the Dictionary Editor dialog box.
5 Re-create the table of authorities for your sample document, and confirm that the
new citation-type entries now appear in it.
If your new citation-type entries don’t quite display correctly, simply edit them
using the Dictionary Editor, and then re-create your table of authorities to
confirm the changes.
