reference number in brackets with "apacite" package.
I'm using "apacite" package and I would like to know how to print the "reference number (or \bibitem number)" instead of "(name, year)" when using commands like "\cite{ }" or "\citeA{ }".
For example:
Let reference #5 be "Besterfield, D. (2013). Quality improevment (9 ed.). Pearson."
When I use "\cite{Besterfield}", latex prints "(Besterfield, 2013)".
But what i need is "[5]" instead of "(Besterfield, 2013)"
Is there a way to get that "5"?
Thanks & Regards.

Use a Vancouver style instead.
