The first three out of four features are found in a shareware
application and Hypercard stack collectively referred to as WordRef. 
WordRef works in conjunction with Microsoft Word, so--because you
already have Word--I expect you'll want to give WordRef a try.  You'll
find it available for anonymous ftp at sumex-aim.stanford.edu in the
files /info-mac/app/word-ref-13-part1.hqx and
/info-mac/app/word-ref-13-part2.hqx.  Here's the Introduction section
from the user's guide which explains its capabilities.

Note: I made some slight editing changes to correct characters which
don't translate well from the Macintosh character set to the ASCII
character set.

1.      Introduction

WordRef is an application which allows users of Microsoft Word to define
and refer to cross-references and to have citations and bibliographies
automatically generated.  This is accomplished via the Print Merge
facility of Microsoft Word: the cross-references and citations are print
merge variables (enclosed in << and >>) which the WordRef application
scans and provides values to.

WordRef is being distributed under the ShareWare system.  If you find it
useful, the price is $25, which should be sent to:

Mark Nodine
70 Mountain Avenue
Riverside, RI  02915-5016

Permission is granted to copy and distribute WordRef, provided that the
complete package (application, stack, desk accessory, and document) is
kept together, and that the package not be sold commercially for more
than the reasonable cost for the distribution medium. Bug reports or
suggestions can be mailed to the above address or sent via electronic
mail to "man@cs.brown.edu".

There have been at least two earlier applications released which use the
Print Merge facility of Microsoft Word for similar purposes.  I have
opted to write my own because neither one of these (Scholar's Aid and
Xref) were general enough to suit my needs.  I have tried to make this
application as flexible as possible so that it can accommodate virtually
any bibliographic style or cross-referencing needs.  Some of the
features of WordRef are

o       No limit on the number of counters (variables) used for
cross-references.
o       Variables can be combined in general arithmetic expressions.
o       Increment operators are included for convenience.
o       Variables can have strings interspersed with numbers.
o       Can scan Word files directly (if Fast Save is off).
o       There can be any number of Word files or bibliography files in a
single manuscript.
o       The bibliography files are kept in the ever popular BibTEX format.
o       A HyperCard stack is provided for maintaining the bibliography files.
o       An additional field is provided for each card for free-form
comments, keywords, etc.
o       Several different citation styles are provided to go at the
point of reference.
o       A user-definable style sheet is used for formatting the
bibliography entries.

If you have used an earlier version of WordRef, you will be interested
in section 7 of this document which is entitled "Release Notes".

Many thanks are due to Herb Barad who developed the stack on which the
WordRef stack was based and kindly gave permission to use it as my
starting point.  Thanks are also due to Sven Axelsson who substantially
reworked the user interface of the WordRef stack during testing.

I've experimented with an earlier version of WordRef (mostly playing
with the Hypercard stack to manipulate bibliography entries), and I've
found that it works extremely well.  I highly recommend it!
