Yes, you can use square brackets so long as you realize that TMG can become confused if the contents within the brackets is the same as a defined variable. Your example of "[on-line database]" is fine, but adding something like "[comments]" would not since this word is a variable.

Thanks, Michael. Infortunately, TMG forces everything within the square brackets to upper case. Is there any way around this?

Is it possible to embed brackets "[" or "]" in the sentence structure of a source? As an example, if I'm citing an on-line database, I would like to include "[on-line database]" in the footnote and bibliography citation sentences, as recommended by many sources.
