Semicolon (;) for period (.)

Post by Nhaps »

When I use multiple citations within one pair of brackets I notice that BE replaces the final period of the reference with semicolon, which is nice. But I need to replicate this for other times when only one citation is used without the final period. Should "\;\" be used after "@" to override format settings?

That will override whatever you have put in the "before" field for Cited Pages.

Oh, yes. So to change what comes after Cited pages I should input "@123-145/;/"
Would this then override the final period by replacing it with semicolon?

No. That won't do anything. If you want tech support, stop using the forum, that's not what it is intended for. Contact tech support directly.
