square brackets?
Author: Alexander Shenkin    Posted: Thu, 10 Apr 2008 18:40:01 -0400
is there any way to get references to use square brackets? i need it when a reference is contained within parens. for example: plants consume CO2 (as we all know [smith 2000]) for their carbon source. And now for an unrelated thought: is there a competitor for Thompson's reference manager apps on Windows? I don't think there really is. Web-based solutions don't count, in my opinion. I wonder if development on endnote would cook along faster if there were. Didn't Thompson buy up all the other reference manager companies at one point? thanks, allie

Not really as a one off. But very easy if you want them to always be in square brackets. Edit the style, citation. Most competing products were bought up by ISI but they are still available. F. Dell'Orsocompares many of them here http://www.burioni.it/forum/ors-bfs12/text/6e12400-2.html and Northwestern recently hosted a "citefest" which will be reported here. http://citefest.pbwiki.com/ Leanne ________________________________________ From: "listmaster" "listmaster" On Behalf Of Alexander.Shenkin "endnote-interest" [Alexander.Shenkin "endnote-interest" Sent: Thursday, April 10, 2008 5:40 PM To: "Endnote-Interest" Subject: square brackets? is there any way to get references to use square brackets? i need it when a reference is contained within parens. for example: plants consume CO2 (as we all know [smith 2000]) for their carbon source.

Hello, You could use "Edit Citation" and remove the author and date, then type in the prefix box: as we all know [smith 2000] The result should appear as: ... plants consume CO2 (as we all know [smith 2000]) for their carbon source. And the bibliography will still format the reference in the appropriate style.
