Please read the updates at the end of this post!
Just
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12\Bibliography\Style\
Here are the references I used to get started:
Bibliography & Citations 1011
Word 2007 citations, should be simple, but... (solved)
If you have any interest in refining this further, or if you find any bugs / inconsistencies / areas for improvement, please let me know (or even better, fix it and send me the updated version).
Enjoy!
Update: There is another IEEE style sheet available on CodePlex from another developer with some additional formatting support. Good luck!
Update 2: Good news! Office 2007 SP3 now includes an IEEE XSL style sheet built-in! You can download Office 2007 SP3 here or use Windows update, and read the Office 2007 release notes here. Thanks to all of you who downloaded my version over the past few years, it's been fun!

Thanks! You totally made my day and saved me from having to figure this out, myself.
A couple of finer points you might consider for version 2:
1) The biblio references should have a hanging indentation, if they take more than one line.
2) Unlike a lot of other styles, authors in IEEE are usually listed as B. Farnsworth, as opposed to Farnsworth, B. Is it possible to disallow Word from reversing the first and last names?
Carson- glad you found it helpful. I'll see what I can do about changing the author formatting.
You are a good man, you made my day too....
I hope you come up with a version 2 with the mentioned things fixed.
Great work !
Several improvements for next version that can be VERY useful:
1) The Authors issue that already mentioned
2) Line spacing between different items
3) Alignment - the second line should start exactly under beginning of text at the first line and not under the number of item.
4) The text of items [10]-> should be left-aligned with the text of items [1]-[9]
5) There should be a point instead of comma after the list of authors.
6) The date (month and year) should be the last one in each item (now if number of pages are mentioned - this is the last one)
7) There is no need to add quotation marks for the name of article.
Hope those (or part of those) will be added to next version.
Thank you.
Hi!
Thank You alot! It si a very nobel from you to give it for free like this.
You ava me from hours of work!!
Great job!
Thanks!! Saved me a couple hours. Did not feel like scanning through lines of xml to change it. I'm forever greatful!
Very Good. How Can I identify an actualization of this file? .xsl
Bradley,
I have problems saving the file.
Could you please send it to juli4n.lin@gmail.com? Thank you.
Hey,
I just noticed you made an IEEE xslt for Office 2007. I made one a little while ago (should have made a little site about it. Maybe we can combine our changes to fix problems.
I couldn't find your contact and I don't have webspace so shoot me an e-mail and I can send you my code if you want. (lgordon@gmail.com)

Great! just what I need for my own tesis.
this is great! thanks alot!
bradley, how can I re-sort the references by first author lastname?
thanks!
I found how to sort the list, removing the <xsl:sort select="b:RefOrder" data-type="number"/> line, but "insertion number" keps the same :(
Bradley,
All I can say is wow! Thanks so much. This is one of those little things in life that appears unimportant but will in fact help thousands of people in their work. (Amazing that MSFT did not include IEEE in their default styles in Word-2007). Its not only academics that use the IEEE style, but folks writing standards docs (yes in the IEEE too).
Hope you will continue improving this style. Please add a Donations/PayPal button to your blog. I'm sure you'll get lots of people donating.
Thanks again.

Thanks Bradley...This is GREAT!!
Hi Bradley,
Thanks so much for sharing.. I quite needed clickable references, and I managed to do it, somewhat..
I edited your style so it adds html anchor and link to bibliography and citations, here is a diff patch
http://pastebin.com/f33e4964e
They will become clickable in Word, but not in a PDF export.
Then, you can use a VBA macro, to convert the 2007 doc to a Word 97 doc, where bibliography turns into static text, but the citations turn into clickable references, which is exportable to PDF - here is the macro:
http://pastebin.com/f6ba3f847
(the macro may need a reference to regex for VBscript, http://www.windowsdevcenter.com/pub/a/windows/excerpt/wdhks_1/index.html?page=4http://www.windowsdevcenter.com/pub/a/windows/excerpt/wdhks_1/index.html?page=4)
Sometimes word crashes in the middle of conversion, but if you ignore it, it can recover and show the recovered 97 doc..
Cheers..
This is fantastic. Microsoft should totally repackage this into their service pack or something. If they want more people to adopt Office 2007, they'll have to convince us geeks first!
Hi again,
Just made some updates to those "clickable" Bradley XSL and macro,
the XSL diff is here:
http://pastebin.com/f7cc18b23
the VB macro is here:
http://pastebin.com/f517b9c4d
It feels great doing work for Microsoft for free - just when to expect to see the results implemented by default :)
Cheers
You are a superstar! ** Thanks, just what I needed.
Thanks a million. You are a champion.
Hi! Thank you very much!
I am working on my Thesis. I just applied your format, and it worked very well. I need the list ordered by Author's last name. Can you help me to identify the lines I need to change?? Thanks a lot ! God bless you!...
thanks man,
You saved 5 hours of my time!
All the
You are wonderful! This is definitely what I needed! Just wondering how you italicize the Title.
FYI, A full-functioning IEEE Bibliography that gets regular updates and other Word Bibliography stuff can be found at the following site:

Enjoy!
Thanks so much
Thank you, you're the best!
Thank you very much, I am now writing my Master Thesis and this have been really useful! Thanks a lot!

Now, from office 2007 superscript endnotes to IEEE bracket endnotes: how to do it?
Thank you very much for helpful IEEE citation link!!! It saves me a lot of time. Thank you again!!!
Hi. This is great, thanks so much for making it. Just one question, I don't want to use "Et al" in the bibliography, is there a way not to use it? Many thanks!
The download link is now working again, my apologies to anyone who tried to download it and got a redirect. Enjoy!
Thanks a lot dude... 3 AM in the morning and I found this solution... You totally made my day and night :-)
Glad I could help :)

Is there an easy way to add page numbers for a reference?
Thanks for this style!
Thanks a bunch mate. This is a life saver for my Engineering Project.
Thanks , I was done with all the revisions of my PhD thesis and thinking of either writing my own style file or convert into text and edit 120 references manually ..
you saved me a week of effort :)
Thanks a lot Brad your IEEE stuff rocks man!!
Thanks a lot. It was really helpful.
You are great my friend. I have to submit my thesis next morning and i have been fucked up by my supervisor, and you really saved my time alot. Thanx man.

Good news! Office 2007 SP3 now includes an IEEE style sheet! You can download it here or use Windows update, and read the release notes here. I wonder if they looked at my version...
