I am trying to decipher the Microsoft Office 2007 Bibliographic format. As I mentioned in my previous post I am writing a Microsoft Office 2007 bibliographic import-export module for JabRef, a bibliographic manager. In this post I will try to find a link between BibTex citation elements and Microsoft Office 2007 Bibliographic elements, so that anyone can use it to create export-import modules. For the shake of discussion here, let me coin the term MSBib for Microsoft Office 2007 Bibliographic Format.
I created an XML ‘sources’ file with all possible entries or source types in Microsoft Office 2007. The file can be downloaded from here. The data used to create this XML are rather random garbage than anything useful. But you can refer to this and see what needs to go in where.
One important similarity I found between MSBib and BibTex is that they both ignore unknown entries. Thats a neat feature, because one can then utilize it to put in some information that is not representable by other, instead of scrapping it all together.
Except this similarity, both the formats are very different. MSBib is quite new and supports newer entry types like movies, case, patent etc. Another important difference is that MSBib has fields that are specific to some source or entry types, whereas BibTex has a common set of field types applicable to anything. Correct me if I am wrong about BibTex here.
Entry or Source Types
There are 17 types of sources in MSBib, whereas BibTex has 16 entry types. The table 1 below shows BibTex and MSBib as one by one mapping. Obvious enough that, there may not be one to one mapping for all of them. In such cases I will try to put them as misc entry or some other similar types. Remember this table as well as any other table in this document is subject to change, as I learn more.
Table 1: Entry or source types

As I mentioned earlier fields in MSBib are entry specific, whereas in BibTex they are common for all the entries. To compare, I will present MSBib fields in a linear list like BibTex. First I would like to show the details of MSBib fields starting with composite Author field and then discussing the rest of it. Later a comparison with BibTex will be presented.
Author Field
MSBib authors are composite structures. Author
can be of following types:
Author
BookAuthor
Editor
Translator
ProducerName
Composer
Conductor
Performer
Writer
Director
Compiler
Interviewer
Interviewee
Inventor
Counsel
Each of the sub-types of Author
contains a NameList
containing one or more Person
(s) or a field Corporate
, comma separated list of corporate persons.
In MSBib each Person
of NameList
as well as in BibTex have three parts, First, Last and Middle. They are presented in MSBib as
<Person>
<Last>LastName</Last>
<First>FirstName</First>
<Middle>MiddleName</Middle>
</Person>
In BibTex names are represented,
LastName, FirsName MiddleName; LastName, FirsName MiddleName;
In MSBib Corporate
field the names are represented as:
LastName, FirsName MiddleName; LastName, FirsName MiddleName;
Different Fields in MSBib
The common fields presented below is common for all source types. Special fields for each source types is presented after that. The fields with red star (*) is a recommended (by Microsoft Office 2007) field for that source.
Common fields present in all sources
Tag
: Identifier for the source. Same as BibTex key. Most probably this is created from first three letters of the first name of the first author combined with last two digits of the publishing year. Example:Mah07
SourceType
: One of the MSBib source types from Table 1.Example:Book
GUID
: Global ID. This enables Word to determine which source is most recent, based on the value of the GUID, and to prompt whether the user wants Word to update the outdated source to maintain continuity between the master list and the current list. Example:{F3BEFB3B-FC0D-47AB-970A-F4003FF99F9F}
(more)LCID
: Language ID. Use 0 for English. Example:0
Author
: A composite containing different author subtypes. Sub types of Author are source specific.Title
*: Title of the source. Example:Brief History of Time
Year
*:Publication year. Example:2004
ShortTitle
: Short title of the source. Example:BHT
Comments
: Free form text as comment on the source. Example:Comment is helpful to annotate a source.

You probably already know it, but BIBTeX’s set of entries and fields is not fixed, it actually depends on what the “style” file you are using supports. There is a rather new (still beta) package for LaTeX called (surprise) biblatex () which greatly extends and simplify the formatting of bibliographies, among other things it adds new entries such as “collection” and new fields like “doi” or “translator”. It could be worth it to make JabRef biblatex-aware.

It didn’t add the URL: http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/biblatex.html

Any news on the import export extension for JabRef to Office 2007? Thanks

Hi Luigi,
I already developed the export module. You can find it in the JabRef 2.3.x.

Comment by mahbub — January 18, 2008 @ 5:08 pm |
Thanks, this has been very useful. I am a long time Tex/LaTex and BibTex user.
I have been using Word/Office 2003, and in need of a Biblio software. I used EndNote a few years ago and was not happy with it. I have the new Office 2007, but (as usual) hate to move to anything new. But perhaps its biblio capability may cause me to use it.
Comment by Hardjono — April 7, 2008 @ 5:28 pm |
Thank you for this report. I am happy that word is finally starting to propose advanced features for bibliography, like open office has done for years now.
However it is still hard to use. I also know (or at least I think I know) that a major issue remains regarding the formatting of bibliographic references (fieds, order, style etc…). Any info on that aspect?
Comment by Mounir E — October 10, 2008 @ 8:37 am |
I know it’s about 3 years late, but I was looking for something else when I came across this post. I had to smile when I read your remark about correcting you if you were wrong about BibTex. I don’t think you are wrong about BibTex, but you are wrong on some points on MSBib.
==== Quote 1 ====
Another important difference is that MSBib has fields that are specific to some source or entry types, whereas BibTex has a common set of field types applicable to anything.
==== Quote 1 ====
The MSBib fields are NOT specific to some source or entry types according to the open xml specification.
It looks funny to have a ‘Theater’ field in case of a ‘DocumentFromInternetSite’ for example, but it is allowed. What Word does is just show a subset based on some config file.
==== Quote 2 ====
The fields with red star (*) is a recommended (by Microsoft Office 2007) field for that source.
==== Quote 2 ====
The fact if a field is recommended depends on the style you use, different styles will have different fields selected.
Comment by Yves — February 26, 2010 @ 2:03 pm |
hey,
thank you very much for your post. i have one question: is there any possibility to edit biblyography so it shows the author’s full name? example: when i fill the entry with “Deutsch, Karl … 1967” it shows: Deutcsh, K. (1967) … i was wondering if I could change it for Karl instead of just K.
thank you so much in advance, i hope you can help me.
