Hello,

I am a doctoral student. I am using Pages on my Mac. It interfaces quite well 
with End Note, a program that manages all of my references and places them in 
my document in the proper format, whilst at the same time, managing the 
bibliography section at the end of the paper. To use Pages with End Note, you 
need to find the End Note plug-in for Pages through the Apple website (my 
university's help desk did this for me). You then need to set End Note's export 
parameter to the proper format. Finally, you need to set Pages sitation 
function to the proper format. After all is set properly, Pages does a very 
good job of managing both the in-paper and the bibliographic references.

if you are not getting proper navigation, do another interact command. 
Remember, each interact takes you another layer deep. It basically functions 
like zooming in.

I am playing around with Open Office, but am now doing my paper writing with 
Pages.
