Manually edit citation styles in Mendeley Desktop
There should be a way to manually edit the citation styles in Mendeley Desktop, preferably in a WYSIWYG editor.
It’s been a long road, but we’ve finally shipped a CSL editor in Mendeley Desktop 1.7.
It’s available via the download links on Mendeley.com, and auto-updates will be available shortly.

I've edited the style and made 2 minor changes (from & to "and")
The changes are reflected in the desktop but not on Word 2007.
Any ideas?

It works, I did what I needed to my favorite citation style. Although it reported errors, the citation came out great.

Thanks Matt, to clarify: The CSL editor is a web application that runs in your browser, but integrates tightly with Mendeley Desktop 1.7.
You don't need to download a separate CSL editor, however you will need to upgrade to 1.7 to easily install and share styles from the editor.
The web application is also Open Source. https://github.com/citation-style-editor/csl-editor

Just to clarify in case anyone else is confused by this, the message 'It’s available via the download links on Mendeley.com' refers to Mendeley itself, and the CSL editor is *built-in*. It's *not* a separate download.
