Hi tatrier,
Quote:
I write essay papers regularly. When typing in 2008 I can simply click and hold "command, option, f" and it will insert a numeral at the end of a sentence. Simultaneously it also inserts that numeral in the footer of the document. The numeral in the doc is hyperlinked to the one in the footer.
Cmd-Opt-f inserts a footnote. It does not add content to the page footer. The Windows equivalent in Ctrl-Alt-f. In any event, that's not what appears to be the real problem, which apparently has to do with the way citations are formatted. Which of the two formats you've described is correct depends on the conventions applying to the particular standard.

There are two forms of the Turabian style:
1. A footnote - bibliography style (widely used for art history and theory)
2. An author - date style (widely used for design disciplines)

From your description, it seems MS Word might have changed from 1 above to 2, though I can't be sure - I haven't used the citations feature enough to be proficient with it.
