Re: Can't create a citation or a traveling library

Subject: Re: Can't create a citation or a traveling library Author: Leanne (Enthusiast) Date: 05-09-2008 08:15 PM It is essential to know what version of Word and Endnote your colleague used.  My recommendation (hindsight being 20/20) is that you always share an unformatted citation (curly bracketed) version.     I suspect that CWYW has been turned off, which is why you inserted the curly bracketed endnote citation, nothing happened.  You can see if this is the case by clicking on Format Bibliography and then clicking on the "instant formatting" tab and see if the button says "enable" or "disable". If "enable" then it isn't on.  If you turn it on, inserted references should now format.    Two, when two different versions of Endnote are used on a manuscript, there are a couple things that can happen.  One user may have the temporary citations set with square brackets and the other with curly.  Only one set might be picked up.  Often the whole thing can be fixed by selecting all, and unformating the endnote citations. If some are curly and some square do a search and replace. Of course,  their citations will no longer be available in the "traveling library" and you may need to get their library or download the references into your library. It sounds like they weren't in the traveling library anyway for some reason. (were they usuing pre-Endnote 8?)  (AND when you do manually unformat all the references, this turns off the instant formating and you have to turn it on again!)     There are many other tricks I use when sharing a manuscript with a colleague.  I save an extra copy and unlink (not unformat) the endnote references (select them and shift control F9), and then copy them into the a copy of the unformatted manuscript.  This way, my collaborator can see what refs I have included.  I have a style, that includes the record number so they can see which ref is which.    Let us know how it goes.

Subject: Re: Government Documents citation style + Switching names around Author: Leanne (Enthusiast) Date: 05-09-2008 08:29 PM Help us help you by telling us which version of Endnote you are using.   I am not sure exactly, as I never use "endnotes" - perhaps you should be looking at the "footnote" formating for the styly you are using.    It is really important to read the online manual and get to grips with editting a style when it isn't producing exactly what you expect or want.  Select "edit, output styles, edit "your currently selected style name here".  There you can specify the why the author name is handled, lastfirst, or first last, etc) and the order of the items.  I doubt you will need to edit or create a new reference type, but if you do, that is handled thru the edit, preferences options.    Any more complicated instructions we might provide, won't make sense until you look there.    good luck and let us know how it goes!

Subject: Re: Can't create a citation or a traveling library Author: MALDATA (New User) Date: 05-09-2008 09:40 PM I haven't been able to get in touch with him to ask about version numbers, but here's what I've figured out. My document apparently can't handle consecutive citations. So, if I format the bibliography or try to export a traveling library, only the single citations get noticed. Anything else like "23,25" or "4-6" is ignored. The fields remain in the document, but the corresponding references are removed from the bibliography or are not put in the new library. If I unformat the document, all the single citations are converted to curly-bracket form, but consecutive ones don't change.   Evidently, this is not a problem for him, as he was able to add the citation without a problem.   I will post more as I get more info... thoughts?

Subject: Re: Can't create a citation or a traveling library Author: PTravis (Moderator) Date: 05-09-2008 10:34 PM Formatted Word documents created using EndNote 8-X on one platform can not be transferred to the other platform.  When you have a citation with large amounts of data, which happens if you have multiple references in a citation, the data is stored in a format that EndNote on the other platform can not read.   If both people do not have EndNote X1, you must use the "Tools > EndNote > Unformat Citations" command before sending the document to the other user.   This issue was discovered after the release of EndNote X.  EndNote X1 was designed to understand the different formatting cause by the two different platforms.

Subject: Re: Tab-Delimited Style Author: parabuthus (New User) Date: 05-14-2008 09:47 AM I experienced the same problem when trying to use this style to make an Excell file.   I do not remember the cause of this problem, but I was adviced to first export the library by using the style "EndNote export" to a .txt file and then import this file again back into a new EndNote library by using the filter "EndNote Import".   If you now try to export references from the new library by using the Tab Limited style the result should be better. At least I was able to convert the resulting file into Excell without any problems.   It is a long time since I did this, so I hope the above is understandable.    Best wishes   Jan Ove Rein, M.Sc.

Subject: Re: problem with upper and lower cases Author: PattiBiggs (New User) Date: 05-20-2008 11:33 AM It sounds as if your EndNote preferences are set to automatically add journal names  to the Journals Term list. If entries get into this list in the wrong case or as abbreviations: this is what you will be offered by autocomplete. It is easy to go to edit the Journals Term list, with your EndNote library open, go to Tools, then Open Term List and select Journals term list from the list of options. Find the entry you want to change, and with it highlighted click the "Edit Term ..." button, correct the entry in the full title box and then click OK to save changes. Occassionally OK will be grayed out, the easiest way to make it active is to put an abbreviation in the first abbreviate title box.

Re: Transferring library between two different licenced endnotes

Subject: Re: Transferring library between two different licenced endnotes Author: PTravis (Moderator) Date: 05-21-2008 04:28 PM Hello,   EndNote libraries can be used on different computers.  If the library was created with EndNote 8 or higher, you need to transfer both the .enl file and the .Data folder for the library.  So if your library was called "Library" you would transfer the "Library.enl" file and "Library.Data" folder to the other computer.   Starting with EndNote X, you can simplify this by going to "File > Send To > Compressed Library" when you have the library open in EndNote.  This will create a single .enlx file.  You can then transfer just the .enlx file to the other computer.   Mac and Windows libraries are compatible with each other as they are in the same format.

Subject: Re: Importing RIS format Author: gilliann (Moderator) Date: 05-21-2008 07:12 PM Hello:   This is usually the hallmark of an outdated import filter. If you are using a version of EndNote that is X or earlier, you may want to download and install a new filter from here:    http://endnote.com/support/enfilters.asp   If you are using EndNote X1, however, you should have a fairly recent filter already installed. If it doesn't appear to be working, or if you've updated the filter already and are still having trouble, EndNote may be looking in the wrong place for its filters. Let's check:   - In EndNote, click Edit>Preferences (On a Mac, that'd be EndNote>Preferences) - Click Folder Locations - Click on the EndNote Defaults button and "Yes" if prompted. Then click OK (or Save and then close on the Mac). Try the import again.  Does that help?

Re: Tab-Delimited Style
Author: Community Mailer    Posted: Wed, 21 May 2008 12:54:43 -0700
Subject: Re: Tab-Delimited Style Author: gilliann (Moderator) Date: 05-21-2008 08:54 PM Hello:   The "messy data" problem is usually caused by carriage returns in your library. The tab-delimited format interprets every place the "Enter" key was hit in your library as a break, and then it makes a new line.   EndNote X does have a way to strip these carriage returns out, however, this change is PERMANENT and may change your library formatting. We therefore suggest that you perform these steps only on a backup copy of your library.   1. Create a backup copy of your library by clicking File>Save a Copy 2. Close your current library and open the backup instead. 3. Click Edit>Change Text. 4. Make sure Any Field is selected in the pulldown. 5. Place your cursor in the Search For field and click the Insert Special button. Select Carriage Return. 6. Leave the Change Text To field blank.  7. Click Change.   Once that is done, try exporting the tab-delimited file from that copy of the library. It should import more cleanly.   The other method mentioned on this thread of exporting in RIS and then importing into a new library will often work as well, but many people find the solution I outlined above a little simpler. In either case, please be certain not to overwrite your original library.   I hope this helps!

Subject: Re: PubMed Central Identification Number Author: gilliann (Moderator) Date: 05-23-2008 03:39 PM Hello, Jaysonlf:   I see the field you're referring to, and it shouldn't be a problem to send it to a custom field. I will provide instructions on that down below.   As a side note, though, I do have a related concern. According to your link, the requirements for including the NIHMS ID in documents seem to be conditional... IF there's no PMCID, THEN add the NIHMS ID instead. This isn't a problem for import, but it is a style issue; EndNote doesn't really have a way to include things in the bibliography on a conditional basis. It's either there in the bibliography all the time, or it's not included. You will have to decide whether it makes more sense to edit your style to always include the NIHMS and then later take out any that aren't needed, or if it'd be easier to just manually add them later where they are needed.    That said, let's return to our import issue. Here's how to manually edit your filter to bring in the NIHMS ID: In EndNote, click Edit>Import Filters>Open Filter Manager. Find PubMed (NLM) and highlight it. Click Edit Click on Templates. Scroll to the bottom of the templates and put your cursor after the last character of the last line. Hit the Enter key to make a new line. Enter the tag in question in the Tag box of the new line. In this case, if you look at a text file downloaded from PubMed in Medline style, you'll see the tag for that is     MID- Hit your tab key to get to the next box, and then use the Insert Field pull-down at the top of the screen to select the field in EndNote that you'd like the NIHMS ID to be imported into. Click File>Save and then try the import again. What happens?

Subject: Re: Authors details appear twice in same reference Author: johneast (New User) Date: 05-26-2008 12:20 AM Direct export from Ovid databases works in an unusual manner. The file of records sent from Ovid identifies the correct filter in your Filters folder by using two tags of data in each record. At the moment, EndNote is finding the wrong filter for you.   You say that the import works OK if you download references and choose a filter. This means that you have the correct filter in your Filters folder, and you know which filter it is. The problem is to remove from the Filters folder the "wrong" filter which is causing the problem.   In EndNote, click on Edit>Import Filters>Open Filter Manager.  Use the "Find By" button to find all the Ovid filters. Try deleting the Autoalerts filter (right click>Delete Filter). See if the direct export works correctly now.

Subject: Re: exclude author or date doesn't work in footnotes Author: johneast (New User) Date: 05-27-2008 01:42 AM Most of the "Edit Citation" functions only apply to author/date styles, such as Harvard or APA. They won't work with footnote styles. There is normally no need to exclude author or date with a footnote style. If you need to add text before a citation in a footnote, you simply type the text in the footnote. If you need to add a page number after a citation, the "Pages" box in the Edit Citations dialogue should do this for you.

Subject: Re: exclude author or date doesn't work in footnotes Author: rstr44 (New User) Date: 05-27-2008 01:57 AM Thanks for the reply, but I'm still perplexed. I recently migrated from Reference Manager to EndNote, and in Reference Manager it definitely was possible to exclude at least the author from citations in footnotes. I was really surprised that EndNote didn't seem to have the same functionality - or else that I couldn't easily figure out how to make it work. The ability to exclude the author is useful when you've already mentioned the author's name in the footnote, for instance.   It's especially vital, though, for journal formats that use an author/date style in the footnotes, such as the journal International Organization. It puts author/date citations in the footnotes and not in the body of the text, e.g. (in footnote x) Austin 1999. These need to work the same way that in-text author/date citations work, and sometimes that means suppressing the author, as in cases where you have text like this in the footnote: "As Austin (1999) notes, this is blah blah..."

Then how do I 're-attach' that to the document, with or without 'displacing' the original library (PhD.enl) from 'libraries used' ? What happens when I send this document back to my colleague .- should / can he easily add my new refs to his original library (PhD.enl) ?   Finally, is any of this process described anywhere in the documentation (I couldn't find it, at least not quickly) ? :-)

Author: Leanne (Enthusiast) Date: 05-27-2008 03:25 PM You DO NOT want to format it back to curly bracketed citations, as that removes the travelling library (TL).  The library is embedded in the paper.  If you ever reveal field codes (from tools, options, general - a tick box), you will see a bunch of gobbledy gooook - which includes everything that is needed to reformat the paper's references with the new information.    You simply insert your new reference from your library into their copy of the formatted paper.  If CWYW is on, it will automatically update the references adding the 101st reference.  If it is off, then manually format with the "format bibliography" toolbar button or endnote tools.  The only problem might be, if you don't have a custom endnote style used by your colleague (and for all I know, that might be in the travelling library too!).  You do not need their copy of the library.    If you extract the travelling library, it has different numbers and won't match those in the paper, but it is an easy way to incorporate the references into your own library for future use in future papers.    There is no need for him to incorporate it into his library unless he wants it.    If you send the formatted paper back to your colleague, your reference will be embedded in the TL of the paper.  If he wants that reference in his library, he can retrieve the travelling library (into a new library) and import it into his Phd.enl library being sure to discard duplicates (if there are many) or just drag and drop the new reference into his own library (if it is only one or two).   It again won't be the same record number, so the manuscript will "remember" your reference from the travelling library.    If you search Endnote's Help for "travel", the explanation may be clearer than mine...

However, I'd prefer the NIHMSID to be included as a separate field, such as custom 3, so that there is a spot to include it and use it, if necessary.   Maybe conditional logic in styles can be an enhancement for EN X3.

Re: Adding new reference to travelling library in Word ?

Subject: Re: Adding new reference to travelling library in Word ? Author: gilliann (Moderator) Date: 05-27-2008 04:33 PM Hello:   While it is not strictly necessary -- as Leanne said, it is possible to continue adding references even without the original -- we actually do recommend sending the EndNote library along with the document.  The reason why is because it is generally a good idea to unformat and reformat the document as you're working to make sure that the most recent information from your libraries is incorporated in the paper. Otherwise, alterations and corrections made to the EndNote libraries may not reflect in the paper's text. However, once unformatted, it can be very challenging to reformat without the original library.   Sending the EndNote library from and to EndNote X or X1 is really simple; please follow the instructions here on using compressed libraries:   http://endnote.com/support/faqs/Database/faq6.asp   Once you have all the library references, you can work on the paper as you normally would.     I hope this helps! Let me know if anything about this is not clear.

If an article gets a PMCID assigned, you wil need to alter the record to include that information and you can then also alter the ref type at the same time.

Subject: Re: theses and APA Author: John-Arnold (New User) Date: 05-28-2008 11:29 PM Hi Gary    The simplest solution is to input the required words (master's thesis, doctoral thesis, doctoral dissertation, etc.) in the Thesis Type field. Of course, this will make the references less usable for other referencing styles, as other styles are likely as not to treat theses and dissertations in different ways.   APA itself is pretty complex in the ways it handles different types of print and electronic theses (Publication manual exx. 54-57; APA style guide to electronic references 8-10). This complexity can be accommodated in EndNote by using a range of referencing types (Journal Article [exx. 54, 55], Thesis [exx. 56-57]; Electronic Book [exx. 8-9], and Web Page [ex. 10]) - though, in saying that, we have corrected the APA output style for Electronic book and Web page to better match the published APA style guides.   A final comment is that theses is yet another example of when it would be helpful if EndNote had the ability to apply conditional logic (if ... then ...) within output styles' templates.   Cheers, John

If on Windows, click on Numbering under Citations.

Subject: Re: PubMed Central Identification Number Author: wwdove (New User) Date: 05-30-2008 06:20 PM I know this goes a little beyond the scope of EndNote, but here is some information on the NIHMSID (MID as you called it) and why it doesn't show up in PubMed.  The NIHMSID is assigned when the article is submitted through the NIH Manuscript Submission System (by the author) or sent in an email to the author after the journal sends it to the NIH Manuscript Submission System. Since the article is not necessarily available to the public in PubMed Central right away, the NIHMSID does not appear in the citation in PubMed. The NIHMSID will appear in PubMed Central after it is released (up to 12 months later) but at that time the PMCID is also given, so it's not much help.   Just fyi as of May 30, the PMCID appears in that record now too, so I do see the MID in the MEDLINE format or the record.  I have never seen PubMed list the MID without the PMCID, so I'm not sure they list it before the record has a PMCID.  Please correct me if I am wrong as I am the Instruction Librarian for my campus and need to know how to correctly follow NIH guidelines.

Furthermore, the change is to a rule that appears on p. 227 of the APA publication manual, which is outside the section (4.16, pp. 268-281) updated by ASGER. Finally, the following paragraph in ASGER discusses the importance of consistency of referencing style in the currently environment of machine indexing, so an inconsistency between print and electronic journal article referencing would be very odd.   Cheers, John

To do so... 1)  Open EndNote 2)  Click the Edit Menu 3)  Click Output Styles 4)  Click Open Style Manger 5)  Find and double-click APA 5th on the list 6)  Click "Templates" under the Bibliography heading 7)  Find "Electronic Article" and see if it lists "Journal" or "Periodical Name" in the template for that reference type. If it lists Journal, then delete the word Journal.  With the cursor in the location where the Journal field identifier used to be, click the Insert Field button (upper right corner) and click "Periodical Name".  You may need to italicize Periodical Name after inserting it.  Then, Save and close the style.   Additionally, does this occur with any other Electronic Articles you've entered, or just this one who's Periodical Name begins with "Journal"?   Thanks,

Subject: Re: Ridding the colon Author: SteveH (Moderator) Date: 06-05-2008 10:39 PM Hello mdhughes72,   The problem is that you don't have a separator to isolate Cited Pages from the rest of the format. The format you'll need is as follows...   (Author, Year[forced separation]:[link adjacent text]Cited Pages[forced separation])   This will make certain that the YEAR isn't linked to the Colon, and instead, the Colon will be tied to Cited Pages. The forced separation following Cited Pages will ensure that if there are no cited pages, everything properly linked to cited pages will be dropped from the format.   I hope this helps.

Subject: Re: Issues with APA style - Electronic Article Author: John-Arnold (Visitor) Date: 06-06-2008 05:34 AM There's not a single example of the use of [Electronic Version] in the APA style guide to electronic references - and so I believe "[Electronic Version]" is no longer used in APA-style referencing. Instead, where relevant, a more descriptive note (without [ ]) is added after the pages and before the retrieval statement, e.g. "Advance online publication." or "Manuscript in publication."   So according to the new APA 5th rules (cf. example 2 on p. 7 of the style guide, which is an ejournal like this one), this reference should not have any descriptive note, and would be   Polly, P. D. (2004). On the simulation of the evolution of morphological shape: Multivariate shape under selection and drift. Journal of Palaeontologia Electronica, 7(2). Retrieved from http://palaeo-electronica.org/2004_2/evo/issue2_04.htm   Furthermore, the EndNote APA 5th output style should not have [ ] always surrounding the Type of Article field, as this punctuation is almost invariably absent now.   Cheers, John

Subject: Re: Issues with APA style - Electronic Article Author: John-Arnold (Visitor) Date: 06-08-2008 11:09 PM Reference Type "Electronic Article" should work if the template is correct (see SteveH's post 6/6 above). Do not include a date of retrieval (another change made in APA style guide to electronic references - retrieval dates are not included unless the item has no date), nor fill in Type of Work.   (As it happens, for the APA 5th output style we have made the template for "Journal Article" and "Electronic Article" identical [mutatis mutandis], since it is debatable whether such a distinction is applicable any more in this referencing style. It's worth keeping both referencing types in EndNote, though, as if you need to change to another style that style may handle print and electronic articles differently).   Cheers, John

Williams & Guerra, 1998)....I saw a similar problem about a week ago.  Most in-text citaitons were formatting correclty, that is without first initials.  However one or two included the first initials, even though it was the same autho r- e.g. (Smith, 2008) but also (L.L. Smith, 2007).  This was EndNote's way of distinguishing two different authors, except that the authors were the same person.  After looking at the specific record that generated the first initials, I discovered there was a <space> after the authors's name in the EndNote  record.  EndNote was reading this as a different author. Once we corrected the offending EndNote records, the manuscript formatted correctly.

Subject: Re: EndNote XI Cite While You Write Errors in Word 2007 Author: snider (New User) Date: 06-14-2008 05:21 AM I reinstalled the Endnotes Add-in in Word 2007 and think I have isolated the problem.  When I insert a citation in the footnote, the citation is inserted not only in footnote form, but, immediately afterwards and in the same footnote, in bibliographic form.  In other words, normally the bibliography is inserted at the end of Word.  But when the citation is inserted in a footnote, the bibliography appears at the end of the footnote.  This, of course, is completely unacceptable, but I don't know how to shut off the automatic bibliographic formatting.  The manual says that the way to get rid of bibliographies is to delete them.  But this is impractical when the bibliography shows up in each footnote.  I need to format my footnotes in Chicago Style, so changing the style is not an option.  Chicago B gets rid of the footnotes but not the bibliographies, which is the opposite of what I need.  What would be ideal is a Chicaga C style that kept the footnotes and got rid of the bibliography.  What a crazy bug!

In my case the folder HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Classes had no permission added. I added Administrators with full perimissions. Just to be sure: the second thing I did was uninstalling Sophos antivirus. Then I reinstalled Endnote. The 'Configure Endnote' program still has greyed buttons, but the word implementation works.

EndNote's attached files are impacted by this Windows limitation as are nearly all other files used on a Windows-based computer.   I would recommend moving the PDF / or the EndNote library (including .data folder) in question to a location that is not deeply nested in a set of folders and see if this resolves the issue.

Author: ANT (New User) Date: 06-17-2008 08:38 PM Hey Rob, I'm doing the same thing (writing thesis with multiple chapters) and was looking for a way to do the exact same thing.  I also have the table of contents that gets messy when you add chapters at a later time.  I'll give you my solution to the problem, it takes a little time but leaves everything the way we want it in the end.   first i write my thesis how i want it, leaving space after the 'reference' section of each chapter.  then, when i'm ready I format my bibliography, which will change the appearance of the citations in the text and place the entire biblio at the end of the document.  I then deleted the entire biblio at the end.  I copied each individual chapter into it's own word document, unformatted the biblio and then formatted it again giving me a biblio at the end of each of these separate documents.  i then copied only the biblio from these separate documents and pasted them in the reference section of each chapter in the thesis.    This should work for any of the citations forms where you use author's name and year instead of numbers.  However, if you use numbers for your citations it will require an extra copy and paste of the entire chapter and then you'll probably lose the formatting as you've experienced.   I know that probably doesn't help, it'd be much easier if endnote would recognize the number of users that are actually writing thesis/dissertations and made this change in their programing.   happy writting!

It maybe caused by too long name of the PDF file.

Subject: Re: Tips, problems for upgrading from Endnote 7 database to current version Author: Leanne (Enthusiast) Date: 06-21-2008 05:45 PM We upgraded our entire institution from Endnote7 to Endnote X (network version  and individual licenses on laptops) about two years ago.  We found EndnoteX to be very stable with the only annoying bugs being incompatibility with some plugins including Flashpaper and Snag-it and the fact that formated documents on Mac and Windows were not compatible across the two platforms (these two issues were fixed for most part X1) .      The formated documents and librarys are not backward compatible but we had no issues that I am aware of with the library conversion.     We found that  it helps to unformat documents in Endnote 7 prior to migration, or to unformat them in EndnoteX and reformat them. Once formated with Endnote 8 or above (don't get 8, as it was a very buggy product), you cannot handle them in Endnote 7 anymore.   If you collaborate extensively, even with the travelling library and both authors using post Endnote8 products, it is probably still safest to share unformated documents.  When ready to submit, share the libraries or have one format a copy (ignoring items not in their library) and send to the other for the final Endnote formating with their library.     Perhaps someone can comment on similar experiences going from 7 to X1 (or now  X2).  On the whole, I believe most people at our institute like X better than Endnote7. In a recent quick test, I didn't find any issues openning, unformating and reformating Endnote 7 documents in the newest X2 version.  I also had no trouble converting a library of over 5000 records.

Author: Virginia (New User) Date: 06-23-2008 04:36 PM I may be in a Monday fog, but you don't want to apply two styles to one paper.  The better choice is to modify the style that meets most of your needs.  If your Ref2 is designated as Reference Type Electronic Article it should style correctly in any style that is also styling Journal Article (the Output Style must have Electronic Article in the Bibliography/Template when you examine/edit the style)..   The ACS style you mention has Electionic Article as a reference type so it should style correctly..However you don't have some of the data that appears in the bibliography such as Date Accessed so perhaps your reference for AFP is Journal Article instead of Electronic article?  Just flip the Reference Type in the AFP record to Electronic Article and you'll see the additional fields where you can add the data..   also, make sure your Author is entered as AFP (Agence France Presse), NOTE the ending comma which is EndNote's clue to treat the Author as a string/phrase   have a nice day, virginia

If there is no folder mentioned right to the Startup click on left, click on choose and got to:   Microsoft Office 2008 > Office > Startup > Word   There should be only the file with .bundle at the end. Close Word and open.   If that does not work, got to:   Users:[your login name with the house icon]:Library:Application Support:EndNote   and put "EndNote CWYW Command.dot" and "EndNote Web CWYW Command.dot" in tht folder.

Subject: Re: "member not found" Author: Jason (Moderator) Date: 06-26-2008 07:18 PM This message can appear if the Cite While You Write (CWYW) tools from a previous version of EndNote are in the Word startup folder. To fix this problem, close Word browse to the Word startup folder. The default location of Startup depends on your version of Windows.   Windows Vista: C:\Users\[YOUR USER NAME]\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Word\STARTUP Windows XP/2000: C:\Documents and Settings\[YOUR USER NAME]\Application Data\Microsoft\Word\Startup   Note: If you cannot find the specified folder, your Windows preferences may be set to hide the folder. In Windows Explorer go to Tools / Folder Options / View tab and make sure that "Show hidden files and folders" is selected.

Start Firefox  2. Type the following into into the Firefox address bar         about:config 3. Either scroll down to the entries for Zotero or use the filter to limit those shown to "extensions.zotero"     You will likely find the following entry which, if set to true, is sidetracking the .ris files (and possible others) to Zotero          extensions.zotero.parseEndNoteMIMETypes  - default - boolean  - true 4. Right click on this entry if set to true and select toggle to change it to false. 5. Close down FireFox to ensure these settings are saved. 6. Open and test for required operation of citations being exported to EndNote via the ask me popup box as used to occur.   If it hasn't worked then check the steps 2 - 4 have made the changes required.    Best of luck Harvey

Subject: Re: Has this been fixed in X1: freezes/crashes associated with Track Changes / Instant Formatting Author: pubs (User) Date: 06-27-2008 04:29 PM Maybe the problems that we were having were related to some other bug? (Although the problems stopped once we disabled one setting while using the other.) We were working with Word 2007 and Word XP on Windows with EndNote X.

Subject: Re: Has this been fixed in X1: freezes/crashes associated with Track Changes / Instant Formatting Author: pubs (User) Date: 06-27-2008 04:32 PM Also, I'm not sure that that problem describes the experiences that we were having. As soon as the users installed EndNote X and used it in her Word 2007 file, Word would freeze and ultimately crash. One user noticed that the problem went away after she uninstalled EndNote X (because the problem, for her started as soon as she installed EndNote). Once she reinstalled it, she noticed the problem again so we researched it online and found users who advised us not to use Instant Formatting with Track Changes. Once we adopted that practice, the problem went away.

The bug, however, still occurs.   Since there are many viewing this post, could someone let me know if they are having the same problems? It woluld really help!    Following is the reponse I received and my recent request for further help ...       ---------------- We have confirmed the EndNote X1 Cite While You Write (CWYW) tools do work for Word 2008 with the 12.1.1 patch installed. I would suggest manually installing the tools by following all the steps found here: http://www.endnote.com/support/faqs/CWYW/faq1.asp#macENX1WORD2008 Let us know if you need any further assistance ----------------   The instructions to that the link leads to are:   ----------------   Macintosh EndNote X1 & Word 2008 Q: How can I get the Mac EndNote X1 CWYW commands to appear in Microsoft Word 2008 under the Tools menu? A: Get the update here. If after installing the Word 2008 SP1 update and the EndNote X1 CWYW 2008 update the tools still do not appear: Close Word and EndNote. Open your hard drive and go to Applications:EndNote X1:Cite While You Write. Copy the files "EndNote CWYW Commands.dot" and "EndNote Web CWYW Commands.dot" by highlighting them and going to "Edit > Copy." Go to the folder Users:[your login name with the house icon]:Library:Application Support:EndNote and paste the two files, "Edit > Paste." Go back to the folder Applications:EndNote X1:Cite While You Write. Copy the file "EndNote CWYW Word 2008.bundle" by highlighting the file and going to "Edit > Copy." Go to the folder Applications:Microsoft Office 2008:Office:Startup:Word and paste the file, "Edit Paste." Start Word, go to "Word > Preferences" and click on "File Locations." If the Startup folder is not set, highlight "Startup" and click on "Modify". Select the folder Applications:Microsoft Office 2008:Office:Startup:Word and click "Choose." Click "OK" and close Word. Start EndNote and then start Word.   -------------   However, the bug still occurs. So following is the message I sent to support seeking further assistance.   -------------   Hello again, Unfortunately the bug still exists. When I open Word 2008, the Endnote X1 CWYW toolbar appears. HOWEVER, all the other tool icons for Word 2008 are greyed out meaning I cannot click on icons such as the icon for "print", "save", "undo" and so on. It appears your instructions are for people who do have the tool bar for CWYW appearing. It appears for me, but when it appears I cannot not use the main Word 2008 icons. One thing I notice is that if I reduce the Word 2008 window into the dock then click again to have it appear, the Word 2008 icons can be clicked. But, as you would understand, I should not be forced to do this each time I open Word 2008. Looking forward to your assistance. Darren Tokyo ---------------   I hope this problem gets solved because I don't want to waste my money on a new version of endnote due for release this summer (2008) if I am going to get a repeat of the same problem. Come on Thompson ... looking forward to your support!   Darren Tokyo

Subject: Re: losing keywords when converting from procite Author: Leanne (Enthusiast) Date: 07-07-2008 11:18 PM First check to see if auto-update has been turned off.  That is in the edit preferences, "terms lists" and make sure the boxes are checked.    Then you should open your terms list, ( in EndnoteX-- Tools, Open Terms List, select keywords list) go to the "lists" tab.   Before hitting the "Update Lists"  you should look at the delimiters selected.  I know it will separate them if there are carriage returns, but I don't know how they imported from Procite.  Pick the appropriate delimiters for your library.    Then hit update terms and select the field (which should be defaulted to Keywords) to update your lists.    If it isn't defaulted/linked to keywords, then you need to change the "Link terms list..."  which has the "Linking fields to terms list" information, (Hit ctrl 3 in endnote in windows version.This is also available thru the Endnote Tools menu) and make sure keywords is linked to Keywords terms list --waaaay down the list.

Subject: Re: Problems with endnote search using PubMed connection file Author: gconner (New User) Date: 07-09-2008 02:43 AM Actually the problem with pubmed connection is not related to pubmed being down or slow. I get various incorrect results from  searches with know results and error messages. Direct connection to pubmed works fine simultaneously. Interestingly Bookends gives similar problems as i finally downloaded a trial version (following years of buggy endnote use).   I am guessing a change to the pubmed site has created a problem. Since this thread has been read by others, the problem is likely not limited to myself and  one other newbie.   Any ideas or solutions are appreciated

I checked and downloaded several journal articles from the Annals of the Association of American Geographers, and all of them came into EndNote as "Film". This is despite the fact that my preferences had the default reference type set to "Journal Article".   When this happens, is there any way to change all these references to "Journal Article" at once, or must one go through them one by one.   By the way, I remember something similar happening with a previous version of EndNote (X?) downloading all references as "Ancient Text", and it was fixed with a patch to the version of EndNote that had the problem.

Yes, select them (coming in, they will be in that Connect group, later you can sort on Record Number and select the group that way, if you change your library preferences for library display to show the record number).  Make sure that only the references you want are showing (if you are certain there are no references in you library with the library as "Film" that you want to keep as films you don't need to make sure only the ones you want to change are selected.)   Do an "Edit>change text"  select the "Reference Type" as the field, type in "Film" (without quotes) and then in the replace box "Journal Article".    It should tell you how many records the "Film" selection in the Reference Type field matches, are you sure you want to change them, and you say yes.    As always, when doing global changes, you should make a copy (use the "send to" to compress it to a *.enlx) before starting.

Author: Leanne (Enthusiast) Date: 07-15-2008 06:48 PM You sound desperate, and while I don't know the answer to your problem or what you are trying to achieve, here are some random thoughts as they occured to me.       See:  http://lists.adeptscience.co.uk/endnote/endnote_Aug_2005/thid_39b160c6f3843adee76c6eaac0909c06.html   Also, the "about this style" for A advises (in version ENX)   "This style requires both footnotes and bibliography. To add cited pages to your in-text citations and footnotes, include them in your in-text citation by adding an "@" symbol followed by the pages: [Wilde, 1895 #32@ 88]"   Although the fact that the citation section is empty would seem to confound this advice?      So, if you want the citation  -- (authorname, year pp CITED PAGES) information, to always appear in the body of the text.  Edit the style to include (Author Year|,*pp*Cited Pages|) where the * are inserted field, link adjacent, and the | are inserted field - forced separation.    If you just want the inserted citations to show up in the bibliography at the end, I think the current style achieves that, they just disappear from the body of the text  but are listed in the "endnotes" (as it appears the style requirements demand).   If you want something different, perhaps you need to give us a more extensive example of your output requirements.  Also, is there a output bibliography style that matches what you want?  In that case, you could, (in EndNote) have that syle showing and do the copy formated (ctrl K) and paste it into your document as plain text?  Would that help you?

The templates for the other categories have Reference Types -- an obvious "must" for someone creating a custom Citation in-text template. Was this an oversight by Endnote developers?    I know that Endnote (or someone) gathered people's custom templates over the years. I developed one for Procite but made the move to Endnote when I thought version XI was good enough.   Any thoughts on the above? Thanks a million.

Author: jonbean (New User) Date: 07-15-2008 09:59 PM Emily,   I'll give that a try but will it cover all reference types??    As for purposes -- a review essay, for example, might discuss a number of recent books that deal with X topic: followed by a list in footnote style (not bib style). There are lots of other uses but that's an obvious one.   Right now, I'll think I'll use Zotero, although it's added work. I also use Zotero to keep a running list of material and then insert in Word in footnote style. (Endnote Web doesn't work nearly as well and is limited to subscription sites).

Subject: Re: How do I change the reference order within a single citation? Author: TheDrIver (New User) Date: 07-15-2008 11:12 PM I just figured out how to do this (accidentally), and hoped it might be helpful to you or anyone else who wants to do this. There are two steps - first creating what I will call a "stealth citation" and second manually inserting the text you want in the visible citation. A "stealth citation" inserts the reference into your references/bibliography without any trace of it in the text. This could be dangerous if not used carefully! By removing both the author name and the year from the temporary citation, it will show up in your references even though you won't see anything in the text. For instance, instead of putting {Garner, 1974 #1189}, you can instead put {,#1189}. When this is formatted, there will be nothing indicating an in-text citation but it will be in your references. So double-check your references to make sure no extra stealths have appeared. Then you put the text you want in with the visible citation. This requires the use a character called the "acute accent" and looks like this "`" thing (remove quotation marks). It's the same key as the tilde key (~) except you don't press shift; it's normally the key to the left of the 1 key. It must be placed before the final semicolon. Let's say you want to see (Felfoldy & Garner, 1971; Handel & Imai, 1972; for a comprehensive review see Garner, 1974) as the final product. If done the normal way: {Felfoldy, 1971 #170; Handel, 1972 #659; for a comprehensive review see \Garner, 1974 #1147} Endnote would give you: (Felfoldy & Garner, 1971; for a comprehensive review see Garner, 1974; Handel & Imai, 1972) No good. So instead you do (note the use and placement of the acute accent): {Felfoldy, 1971 #170; Handel, 1972 #659`; for a comprehensive review see Garner, 1974} {,#1147} Now when you format you get: (Felfoldy & Garner, 1971; Handel & Imai, 1972; for a comprehensive review see Garner, 1974) And Garner (1974) will show up in your references! Tada! Sorry for the long and complicated explanation, but hopefully it helps...

Author: emilyatchemlib (Visitor) Date: 07-17-2008 04:04 PM Jon, Once you have created the citation format in your modified output style, then take a look at the templates for Bibliography and Footnotes. You can copy/paste each of  the reference type templates in Footnotes into the corresponding reference type in the Bibliography template (one at a time), replacing the existing Bibliography reference type formats.  This will format your Bibliography that you need. Chicago 15 A has all major reference types defined in both Footnote and Bibliography - use their Footnote template as your starting point..

Subject: Re: Can Field Order be Changed in References? Author: jt7787 (New User) Date: 07-18-2008 08:35 AM why not? This is a glaring deficiency that evidently harks back to Endnote's rather awkward interface. Perhaps it's time for a recode / overhaul?   I'd simply like to promote the 'label' field to the top of every reference window, so that I can put in my own code to keep track of paper copies. Since I can't do that, I have to manually remove ALL unwanted fields of EVERY reference type I wish to use just so that the 'label' field isn't right down at the bottom of the page. This is HORRIBLY inflexible and quite surprising for such a noteworthy program, especially since I can easily ammend the field order in the library window.   Other quibbles: the password requirements on your forum are unnecessarily stringent. I mean if it was a system logon then OK, it's good to have a secure password, but for a run of the mill forum? Get real endnote, that kind of security just isn't necessary to IMPOSE on all users.   Second, my verification email went straight into my gmail spam box. You might wanna sort that out.   Thanks for an otherwise good program, pity it's coded in such an inflexible way. Please let me know when a new edition emerges that behaves more like windows apps, not as a quirky throwback to previous editions. Thanks

Author: jt7787 (New User) Date: 07-18-2008 08:42 AM What's even more annoying is that in edit->prefs->reference types you even state "the table cannot be used to reorder the fields in a reference window" which caused me to spend even longer looking for the menu / option that could allow me to reorder the fields. It would be better to have been honest, telling us it can't be done in this OR ANY OTHER menu, so don't waste your time trying:    "the table cannot be used to reorder the fields in a reference window, so don't even bother trying because you can't do it.

Subject: Re: Full text search leads to unwanted references? Search for ungrouped references? Author: hsrstud (New User) Date: 07-19-2008 12:59 AM Unfortunately, the solution posted above wasn't very helpful for me (although I appreciate the tip), because I have already done a lot of searches since updating to Endnote X2.  In my case, ordering by record number and looking at the latest records lists a bunch of new references, some of which I want to keep (those I had searched for) and others that were not desired.  Since I've done so many searches, it would be a real hassle for me to review each of the new references for relevance.  Plus, some of the new references have similar titles and I may not remember which reference I want to keep.     Here are a couple of solutions that I received from customer support and elsewhere in the forums.  I thought others might benefit as well from these nifty workarounds, until the EndNote development team releases a patch in the near future to turn the automatic search off.       To prevent this problem from occurring (I read this suggestion elsewhere in the forums):    Unless you don't mind deleting excess references upfront that are downloaded when you perform a search, try the following.  Create a dump library (new library that you will only use for searching).  When searching, open this library as well as your reference library (perhaps you can place your dump library at bottom of the EndNote window and reference library at top).  Use the dump library to search for new references.  Then drag the references you want from the search results in your dump library to your regular reference library.       If you are already piled higher and deeper (received this suggestion from customer support):   Here is one possible way [resolve this problem]. First create a new blank test library. Next, in your regular library click on File > Save a Copy to save a backup copy of your regular library. In your regular library go to the first group and click on Edit > Select All to select all the records in the group. Click on Edit > Copy and then go to the new library and click on Edit > Paste. Do that for each of the groups. When this is finished the test library will contain records that are in groups in your regular library. After that you can close your regular library and click on File > Import. For data file you can choose your regular library. Click on the arrow beside the import option window and choose EndNote Library. For duplicates choose Discard Duplicates. The imported tab will show the records that were not already in the database. These would be the records that are not part of a group in your regular library.     Hope this is helpful.

Apparently this is a no-no (see X1 User Manual p. 301).   I am working on a 250 page thesis with over 1000 citations, and received an error message something along the lines of Object deleted (not at the time i was deleteing citations, perhaps when instant formatting was scanning the doc). Long and the short of it, around 400 citations dissappeared from my Edit Citation dialogue box. They still appeared in the text as active , and i could still select 'Edit Citation', which would open the Edit Citation dialogue box, but the citation i had selected was no longer in the 'Citations in document list' and my tally of citations (bottom right) was down around 600!   It seems that when using Formatted citations, the correct way to remove them is using 'Edit Citation' and then clicking remove, so that all the code associated with the smart tag is correctly removed.   In the meantime, i have had to rebuild my document from backups, and no longer use the delete key. :-(

Subject: Re: Some suggestions - subject bibliography Author: Leanne (Enthusiast) Date: 07-24-2008 03:42 PM To get a list of Recommended readings (not necessarily cited?), separate from the cited sources (as footnotes)? Is that what you are trying to get? So Cite things in footnotes, and then -why not use a label or other custom field to put a specific "topic" in the records themselves, and then generate subject bibliographies using the "subject bibiography..." tool and paste them in the specific place in the text you want them to be. You might be able to do something similar using the groups of Endnote XI, but since I haven't upgraded to that, I can't suggest the best way to achieve what you are working toward. They will not be dynamic, but once you know what you want to list there, do you really care? You can later add another one (using the copy format) or generating a new list and replacing it. -- I guess I am happy I am in the sciences and not the humanities! With the subject route: This will generate a list or lists sorted by the selected subject which can be saved to a file. You can generate a document with several subjects listed separately, which you can copy and paste each section, into your document. Again be sure the Endnote program has the appropriate style selected so that it outputs the information in the specific format you are looking for. It really doesn't matter if it originates from the footnote syle or footnote/endnote style of Chicago. Copy and paste the template you want from Chicago into the bibliography place (of a copy of Chicago if you like) and use that saved new style to generate the copy formated to paste or the subject bibiography.

I have tried using the "Edit Citation" button in Word and have selected "Exclude Author" for the citation. However, as the reference is authorless (reference type "Statute"), the EndNote CWYW won't allow the in-text citation to be listed without the title of the work.   Is there a way to ensure that the title isn't included in the reference when the work is authorless under APA 5th?   Christopher Andrew Brkich, MEd Alumnus Fellow, University of Florida College of Education PO Box 117048 Gainesville, FL 32611

Subject: Re: EBSCO Saved Citation Author: johneast (Visitor) Date: 08-04-2008 05:27 AM EBSCO is sending a file with the extension .ris to EndNote. EndNote is importing this using the RefMan (RIS) filter. Unfortunately you cannot interrupt that process and tell EndNote to change the text translation to Unicode (UTF8).   The only solution I can think of is to go to Windows Explorer, click on Tools>Folder Options, and then select the "File Types" tab. Select the RIS file type, and click on the Change button. Choose to open this file extension with WordPad.   Now when you directly export from EBSCO (and most other databases), the file of records will not go to EndNote. Instead it will open in WordPad. Save the file as a text file. Import it into EndNote using the RefMan (RIS) filter. On the Import dialog box, set the Text Translation as Unicode (UTF-8). The diacritics should import correctly now.   This is cumbersome, but it worked for me when I tested it.   If your references contain no diacritics, go back to Windows Explorer and set the File Type options so that the .ris files will open with Web Export Helper. They will then go direct to EndNote.

Subject: Re: Merging several bibliographies in one Author: Leanne (Enthusiast) Date: 08-07-2008 03:49 AM It sounds to me like you want one big bibliography, not separate bibliographies for each chapter.  Try unformating the references, delete the remnant bibliographies and then reformat the document.  You should end up with one big bibliography at the end.    To "unlink" the references, use the endnote tool in word that is called "remove field codes", or select all, ctrl+shift+f9 ON A COPY, this will remove any endnote information and make the Endnote unusable on the resulting document, but freezes things as they are.  This is what you would want to do, to ensure the maintenance of individual reference lists for each chapter prior to combining.

Subject: Re: Critical Bug in CWYW for Word 2008 (Mac) Author: ozdazza (Visitor) Date: 08-07-2008 12:43 PM Hello Ed & Lisad   It is good to know that I am not the only one battling with this problem. Since I am in Japan, I would have to stay up overnight in order to speak with Support. Instead, I had been going back and forth with Support via email. (No use asking Support in Japan, I learnt I knew more about the issue than their own specialized staff who in the end contact Thomson Reuters to get form replies).   Basically, it took a while, but finally I had Support get their "Product Management Group" to post on the Endnote website that the bug formally exists.   Thus now on http://www.endnote.com/support/CWYW_Word_2008.asp you will see written:   -------- Some users have reported that all the tools and menus in Word 2008 appear greyed out after installing the EndNote X1 CWYW patch for Word 2008. Switching the focus away from Word 2008, to the Finder or another program, and then returning to Word allows the toolbars to work. --------   Now that they formally admitted there was a bug, I asked Support to fix it pretty please. The response I got was:   -------- ... I highly recommend that you submit this as a request through our suggestions form: http://www.endnote.com/ensuggest.asp This goes directly to our Product Management Group and is the best way to make your voice heard when it comes to anything you may want to see included or changed in the software. -------   Since Support are on the 'inside' and know about this bug inside and out, I asked if they could put in the request. The response I got was:   ------ In order to see results, it would help if you as a consumer of our product were to contact our Product Management Group directly through the online form I indicated.  ------   I shook my head in disbelief. I have to put in a request for a new feature for a bug? That one is beyond me. Plus I felt like I was now dealing with one big government bureaucracy. Support not being able to make a request to their own Product Management Group to fix a bug is puzzling to say the least. Thomson Reuters seem to want us, the customer, to put in requests for new features that are actually bug fixes and not their very own Support team who know about the problem inside and out! Why do *I* have to go running around on the Thomson Reuters bureaucracy wheel?   So, basically I have given up on Endnote. I bought an excellent application made by a Mac programmer called "Bookends". It deals with the Word 2008 issue wonderfully using an apple script. There is another application designed also specifically for the Mac called Sente. It looks wonderful and seems to work for most people, but it did not work the way I wanted. I would give both a try.   If you guys would like to actually put in a request to the Product Development Team, I will chime in as well to add to the voices. My university has a site license for Endnote. But I am going to strongly insist they provide us with other real Mac alternatives like Bookends. Bookends is way much cheaper and they are not insisting that you fork out heaps of money for a minor upgrade like Endnotes does.   Let me know what you plan to do and we'll take it from there.   Cheers! :)   Darren Tokyo

Subject: Re: X2 upgrade - now get "Server execution failed" Author: kdlneal (New User) Date: 08-10-2008 04:10 PM When I start Endnote from the .exe file first, it starts okay, and I can go back and forth to MS Word.    If I try to start it by going into MS Word first I get various useless results, one of which is the Server Execution Failed message.   Hope that works for somebody else. It seems like there are all sorts of different results possible - sometimes I get that message, sometimes I get a message that looks like the Trial Version warning, but just flashes so I can't be sure, most times I get the hourglass for a few seconds to a minute, then it goes back into MS Word. One time it actually got into  the Endnote screen with no database displayed and locked the computer with 0% CPU use so that I had to use Task Manager to kill both Endnote and MS Word to get control again.   So far, if I start the server first, I just don't like the way it handles some of the references, as noted in a different thread. At this point the trial to purchase decision is iffy, but I will keep an partially open mind.

Re: ?APA Format in Endnote X2

Subject: Re: ?APA Format in Endnote X2 Author: kdlneal (New User) Date: 08-10-2008 05:13 PM That is only one of several problems noted:   Aimone, J. Wiles, J. Gage, F.   becomes:   ASDF (Aimone, Wiles, & Gage, 2006)   Aimone, J., Wiles, J., & Gage, F. (2006). Potential role for adult neurogenesis in the encoding of time in new memories. Nature Neuroscience, 9(6), 723-727.    Note that 1) the author list is shortened to two names, 2) the bibliography entry has both the foreshortened list and incorrect placement of the initial for the second name.   I did check that I still had APA 5th selected.   I did find, after some messing around that if I insert the item without a format then format the bibliography to APA 5th in Word it come out:  ASDF (Aimone, Wiles, & Gage, 2006)   Aimone, J., Wiles, J., & Gage, F. (2006). Potential role for adult neurogenesis in the encoding of time in new memories. Nature Neuroscience, 9(6), 723-727.  subsequent citation was: LLLL (Aimone, et al., 2006)  which is all correct. Also I tried with six+ authors and got the correct first citation and reference as long as I formatted it after insertion. So the problem is in the  insertion interface either not using the selected format or having a differnt formatting guide. However, there is one anomaly to that idea - now the preview pane in Endnote shows the format that it will have in MS Word after I do the format step, where as before it was showing the format from the first case.   However, there are additional rules that apply when more author names are required to distinguish references, and a couple of sample cases, ended up with the citations being indistinguishable.   Another problem that I have noted is that for compilation books, where the editor becomes the primary author in the data fields, I can find no way to designate (Ed.) I did make it include (Ed.) as an additional author so that it is close.   If I try to fix those, Endnote immediately sets them back to the error.    I tried selecting the error item and using remove codes. All of the citations and references were changed to text and new citations went in tas the unformattd ({}) as text only, even though I still had APA 5th selected. (Which is how I found out about the fix to the shortened author list.)   So at this point, my workaround is:  1) Just do unformatted citations while I write.    2) When I am done,             save a copy,  so that I can do any further modifications             format the citations as APA 5th (closeta)             remove the field codes             fix the (relatively few) items that aren't handled properly             3) For any updates go back to the saved copy with the unformatted citations   Is there a simpler way?

Subject: Re: When is Endnote X2 for Mac going to be released? Author: JasonR (Thomson Reuters) Date: 08-11-2008 05:02 PM Overall the feature set will be very similar to the EndNote X2 Windows version. We are targeting a few Macintosh-only features but these could still change - even at the last minute - so everyone will need to wait for the final release to see.   As for " ...compatible with word processors other than Microsoft Word?" - I presume this means "CWYW" support for other word processors. No - EndNote X2 for Macintosh will not include this feature. We hear many requests for "Apple Pages integration" which we would like to support but this is completely dependent on Apple. You might want to send a suggestion to them as I imagine it will be more meaningful from a customer than from us - http://www.apple.com/feedback/pages.html.   EndNote sales/pricing information is available here -  http://www.endnote.com/enpurchase.asp   Jason Rollins

Subject: Re: Journal Abbr. Author: wwdove (Regular) Date: 08-12-2008 01:25 AM This can be due to the output style you are using, or that you did not import the journal term lists, which link the abbreviations to the full titles.   To check the output style In EndNote Go to Edit > Output Styles >  Then if the style you are using shows up as "Edit stylename" click that, otherwise choose Open Style Manager, click on the style name and click Edit. In the left menu, click on Journal Names Select the button next to the Abbreviation you want (Abrev 1 has punctuation, 2 does not).   If the correct abbreviation is selected already, then the journal term list needs to be imported. To do this, In EndNote Go to Tools > Open Term Lists > Journal term List In the Terms tab, the journals will probably not have appropriate abbreviations, so select them all (control A on a windows machine) and click Delete term Then go to the  Lists tab Select Import list Find the list you need at C:\program Files\EndNote\term Lists Click Open   Hope this helps.

Subject: Re: How to set all entries in the library to the same font (size, font-face)? Author: philosopherdog (Regular) Date: 08-13-2008 10:18 PM Hi, You need to strip the formatting out before copying it into Endnotes. Endnotes does not have this feature. What you probably need is a clipboard manager like Clipmate or the one from Donation Coder. These allow you to copy in plain text. You could also convert the html code by pasting it to your notepad program, or even Word can handle this if you know how to do it. The other thing you might do is use Google Scholar for your searches and in the setup to Google Scholar you can have import to Endnote links added to your search results. Import your entries from here  by clicking on the import to endnote link, rather than copy and paste them. You can also import using Library of Congress by using Endnotes connection feature, but this will just work for books mostly. Copying and pasting should be a last resort and if you do it you will have to follow one of my suggestions above.Good luck.

Subject: Re: Getting a reference out of a Custom Group without Deleting the Reference Author: philosopherdog (Regular) Date: 08-15-2008 10:26 PM Highlite the entries from within the group folder not "all references" folder. If they are not contiguous, then use control click with the left mouse button. Right click to delete them from your group and find the "delete from group" command to do this in the right click (context menu). If you want them to be in another group, then highlite them in the same manner before removing them from the group you no longer want them in, and drag them to the new group with your mouse. Then you can always remove them from the first group using the method above. To remove them entirely from the library you must first go into the "all references" folder and delete them from there. You can't remove them from the whole library from within a custom group, unless they've changed this in X2, which I doubt.

Subject: Re: how to connect Proquest Dissertations & Theses abstract with the connection file to Proquest Author: johneast (Enthusiast) Date: 08-21-2008 01:49 AM The username and password that you have is probably searching all the Proquest databases that your institution subscribes to.   It is possible for your institution to ask Proquest to segment the databases on their Z39.50 server. Then they will be issued individual usernames for each database. You use the same connection file, but the username that you input will determine which database is searched. See information on the Proquest website: http://www.proquest.com/techsupport/answers/pqc/pqc_ans_68.shtml   This is a good option for many of the Proquest databases, and much more useful than searching them all simultaneously. However it does not work well for the Dissertations and Theses database. The records do not import with the degree type or the university.   You would do better to search the Proquest Dissertations and Theses database on the web, and use the direct export facility to get the records into EndNote. This is easy and works well.

Subject: Re: Word Definition reference type Author: Renee (New User) Date: 08-21-2008 07:02 PM "Word Definition" is a standard reference type in EndNote X1 for Mac. I didn't create it.  (I'm running OSX 10.3.9 on a Powerbook G4, and I'm using EndNote X1 with Word 2004 for Mac.)   In EndNote 9, I used the webpage reference type and entered * The Oxford English Dictionary  * in the author field  and inserted the word in the title field. The Dictionary standard reference type in EndNote X1 is not the correct choice for a specific word. With the changes in EndNote X1, my references for words are no longer displaying correctly because the Webpage reference type has changed. So, I now have to change hundreds of reference entries so that they will correctly display bibliographic information. The quote marks around the words did not disappear in my EndNote 9 references for word definitions.   This is how EndNote displays my entry in the Word Definition reference window, which I entered as "university, n." in the word field:   "university, n. 1989 2nd ed. The Oxford English Dictionary: OED Online. Oxford University Press. 27 Aug. 2005  http://dictionary.oed.com/cgi/entry/50267851.    If the word does not have a suffix, such as "n" , then the entry will display with no problems. The closing quote marks do not disappear in this case:   "ideology". 1989 2nd ed. The Oxford English Dictionary: OED Online. Oxford University Press. 22 August 2006,  http://dictionary.oed.com/cgi/entry/50111233.   In the Word Definition standard EndNote reference type, the word appears in the author field in the Library window. Just a quirk of this particular reference type, I guess.The main problem for me is entering a word that has a suffix so it conforms to the field entry rules for author names so that the quote marks remain in place. The alternative is not to use quote marks, which creates a bibliographic entry that looks like this:   administrative, a. 1989 2nd ed. The Oxford English Dictionary: OED Online. Oxford University Press. 19 Feb. 2007, http://dictionary.oed.com.oca.ucsc.edu/cgi/entry/50002842.    Would a reader be confused by the entry above?  Is the author name format a bit ambiguous?    Thanks for any feedback on this,   --Renee

It is unlikely that the Mac version would have a reference type which is not in the Windows version.   I checked the Mac version of the EndNote X1 manual from the EndNote website, and "Word Definition" is not in the list of "Reference Types and Fields".   Maybe you have inadvertently imported a Reference Type Table that some other user has modified?   If you go to Preferences>Reference Types, you can export your Reference Type Table and save it. Then you could revert to the EndNote defaults, and see if they work better for you. If not, you can reimport the Reference Type Table.

Subject: Re: Problem w. in-text citations displaying full name Author: Leanne (Enthusiast) Date: 08-24-2008 11:17 PM I would invest in a good thumbdrive rather than the travelling library feature.  When collaborating on one manuscript with colleagues, it can be a useful feature, however, for your own writing, you want one library which is stable.    If there are two versions of the library now, with some differences, import one library into the other, but be sure that you don't import duplicates (choose the "discard duplicates" or "import into duplicates library").    ON A COPY, unformat the paper and reformat it with the combined library.  A few references might come up, as they now have a different record number.  Select the match (this might give you a clue, if there are some duplicates remaining, so you should go back and delete them.)    If it still happens, inspect those references (edit citation) to see if they are pointing to different records in the libary, but are really duplicates.  If so, delete one of the records and unformat and reformat again.    The other time you might get full name/initial, is if they are two different references, but endnote also thinks they are different authors, and want the reader to know that.  If they are the same author, replace the first author, by copy and pasting the name from the other record.  Often there are subtle differences (an extra space or punctuation) which Endnote reads a differences.    Finally, whenever you use the Unformat command, you turn off CWYW.  If you want the word document to automatically format citations and references when you add  or delete them, you need to turn it on again thru the format citation dialogue box, on the "instant formating" tab.    good luck

Subject: Re: Problem with disambigated in-text citation in MLA Author: samcarroll (New User) Date: 08-25-2008 01:27 AM Hi John,   That's a good tip, actually, thanks. Where possible I've reworded my writing to include the author in the body of the sentence, enabling me to exclude the author in the citation altogether, which means it is formatted correctly since no comma is required. Of course, it is not always desirable to do this.   I'm worried about one thing with your workaround. I'm still editing my document - it's my PhD thesis in draft. Say, I have only two of Woolf's texts referenced and then, through the editing stage, I delete one of them. Suddenly EndNote no longer disambiguates the references to Woolf by adding the Short Title. However, if I had already hard-coded the author name+comma+space in the prefix of those citations as you suggest, I end up with: (Woolf, 23), ie an erroneous comma.   Unless EndNote comes up with an automatic disambiguation that is correct, I fear I'm going to just have to be inserting the odd comma in the final version once field codes have been removed. Could be worse I suppose.   Thanks for your suggestion.   Sam

Subject: Re: Problems with using EndNote to prepare papers for international journals Author: Leanne (Enthusiast) Date: 08-25-2008 07:52 PM As most of the journals I now submit to, create a PDF version, I haven't bothered striping the links for my recent submissions and have had no "loss" of references.    Other publishers specifically request that imbedded field links are removed.  You don't have to avoid using Endnote! You just need to eliminate the links before sumission.   Routinely, I use ctrl A (select all), shift+ctrl F9 (unlink fields) ON A COPY of the manuscript for submission.  Alternatively, use the Endnote "tool" to accomplish the same thing (the one with a little arrow pointing straight up.    Some publishers now actually prefer to have Endnote imbedded links, as they convert them somehow to create their html version of the online document.  So it is worth while to check on their preference.

Subject: Re: format for aquaculture journal Author: Leanne (Enthusiast) Date: 08-26-2008 12:17 AM "Out of the box" EndnoteX's Aquaculture journal style says that the Author Lists should list all Author names - as First Appearance and subsequent appearances which sounds pretty weird to me and is not what the Journal's instructions to authors says it should be!  - so if you already changed it to the more common, 3 or more, list one, then you might just have to unformat and reformat.  Make sure you also change both the first appearance and the subsequent appearances section of citation when you edit the style.    Don't change the bibliography section, which should show all authors.

Subject: Re: Problem with in-text MULTIPLE Citations Author: mandiose (New User) Date: 08-26-2008 03:45 PM I think that, as long as you're using the modified output style, you're always going to have that problem with multiple citations.  The way to do this is not to modify the overall output style but to modify that particular in-text citation.  What you do is: 1. Insert your citation as normal, using the original output style for APA. 2. Once the citation is in your text, put your cursor inside the citation and then choose Tools--> EndNote--> Edit citation(s).  Or you can choose the Edit Citation(s) icon from the EndNote toolbar (the one with the pencil inside the brackets). 3. A dialog box showing the underlying codes and options for all your citations will come up.  As long as your cursor was in the citation you want, it will be referring to the right one.  Check the "Exclude Author" box.  Click Ok. 4. The citation that originally read, "Smith (Smith, 2008) said..." should now say "Smith (2008) said...".   Hope this helps! Mandi

Subject: Re: Problem with in-text MULTIPLE Citations Author: Leanne (Enthusiast) Date: 08-26-2008 10:37 PM I really think that Mandiose gave you the correct advice.  You are never going to get multiple citations to look correct using the approach you have outlined.  The only other way to achieve this and not mess up the multiple citations is to turn off CWYW and leave the default (Author, Year).  Now the inserted endnote citation will look like this {Author, Year #RECNO}.  Manually move the Author into your text, outside the bracket --Author et al  {, Year #RECNO} -- when you need those(and add the et al, if appropriate, or the Author1Surname and Author2Surname).  Leave multiple citations as they are.    The last alternative (using your current style setup) is to fix the Multiples by unlinking the fields ON A COPY and fixing them manually just before submitting.  the closing bracket is ommitted because that is what would happen in a normally formatted multiple reference.  It is replaced by the coma, in your case.  I assume you don't want it to appear as Author1 (Year), Author2 (Year) Author3 (Year)  ?

Once the default user was cleared and a new profile loaded Eudora and MS Word were happy.   This was the reason that newly created profiles exhibited the same problem.  Precisely where the problem was in the profile has not been determined, but the software works as required.

See: http://www.nii.ac.jp/CAT-ILL/en/about/cat/z3950.html   You will have to approach them to have your IP address authorised.

Subject: Re: Guide to new features in EndNote X2 Author: patrickc (Visitor) Date: 09-03-2008 06:00 AM Hi John   This is an extremely helpful coverage of the new features of EndNote X2.  Thankyou.    I am trying out various methods to get the Find full text feature to work and your suggestions are very useful.  I find that if you have an ISI base URL that relies upon Ezproxy access to ISI Web of Knowledge the full text feature can't make use of the ISI link to full text.    It is very frustrating that organisations do not realise that most of their users will be accessing through an Ezproxy mechanism.  It fouls up most alerting systems in terms of linking back to full text items and here it appears to be fouling up the use of the Find full text feature.   I did have a bit of success with a ScienceDirect item (Journal of Molecular Biology) (which I believe we ezproxy and have an IP range covering our entire campus) by moving the DOI number into the correct field.    I think there will need to be a lot more testing to find out how to get the best out of the Find full text feature which should be a real winner if we can get it to work.    Regards Patrick Condron University of Melbourne

Subject: Re: Guide to new features in EndNote X2 Author: johneast (Enthusiast) Date: 09-03-2008 06:11 AM If removing the Ezproxy string from the ISI Base URL would help, you should be able to do this easily. In EndNote, click on Edit>Preferences, and then go to the "Online" section.   In the ISI Base URL box, I presume you have a URL which includes your insitution's Ezproxy server. You can replace this with: http://gateway.isiknowledge.com/gateway/Gateway.cgi   Now when you export references from Web of Knowledge to EndNote, the ISI Base URL will just be a direct link to Web of Knowledge. This is fine if you only want to use it from a computer on campus. It may even work off campus, if you have a virtual personal network which maintains the institutional IP address.

Subject: Re: X2 slow to load Author: JasonR (Thomson Reuters) Date: 09-03-2008 02:24 PM The easiest way to speed up the load time of EndNote X2 is to edit the list of content files in the folders that your "Folder Location" Preferences point to [For example - C:\Program Files\EndNote X2\Styles, etc.]. If you only use a small subset of Connections, Filters, and Output Styles - as the vast majority of EndNote users do - simply move the files that you do not commonly use to a separate location. You can always move files back to the list.     Jason Rollins, EndNote Product Development

Make these changes:   In the Pos column, insert 1.   In the Str column, insert 1.   In the Tru column, insert 1.   Close the edit window, and save the changes when prompted.   Now establish the online search connection again.

Author: patrickc (Visitor) Date: 09-05-2008 03:41 AM Hi Jason   If you haven't already, it would be outstanding if you could investigate integrating the full text feature with an individual's proxy configuration so that you could download articles served from proxy servers.  I am thinking of a preferences tab for full text which allowed you to enter your institution's proxy server address and your login and password.  The request from EndNote for the full text would then use the proxy URL to check for access.    I don't know if this is even a possible thing to do with Ezproxy.     In our University situation, we have a complicated network arrangement where multiple organisations (from a contractual point of view with suppliers) including hospitals and research institutes share an IP network range with the University so we have very limited on campus IP recognition by full text providers and most things are served to authenticated users through Ezproxy.  It would also be good if the system was able to handle the Athens authentication system.   I have had success with using the full text system with a range of journals now and am astounded at the possibilities it presents.  I also wonder how it will be perceived from a copyright point of view, given many suppliers could provide multiple PDF downloads from their websites if they wanted this to be allowed but haven't and this system appears to allow unlimited downloads.   Regards Patrick Condron University of Melbourne

Subject: Re: How can I download fulltext via endnote x2 from the wiley and other journals! Author: thomasrizzo (New User) Date: 09-05-2008 12:43 PM Jason,   I spent some time doing some testing, and I apologize that I am probably telling you things you already know.  If an Endnote record contains the DOI then all is well.  The problem comes from the fact that when I use ISI Current Contents Connect to download records from searches that I have done, most of them don't have the DOI directly in the record and then EndnoteX2 doesn't find the pdf.  If I manually add the DOI then it finds it, but this is too much work and negates the advantages of the fulltext feature.  I tried the same thing using the ISI WOS database and the records contain the DOI so there is no problem.  The problem is that if one wants to keep up in the literature, CC comes out sooner.  What I don't understand is why Current Contents doesn't contain the DOI.  If I go to the website of the journal of a record I find with CC, the DOI is there, but I don't want to have to do this every time.   Regarding the program papers, as a program it cannot be compared with Endnote, but it has the ability to use google scholar to search for pdf files.  This still takes a few clicks, but much fewer than looking up the DOI to add to Endnote. Of course this requires full institutional access rights to all major journals, which we have.   From my point of view, if Thomson Reuters adds the DOI to Current Contents records then all is solved for me, and I think it would make EndnoteX2 a much more powerful product.   Tom Rizzo />

Subject: Re: "Indirect Source" formatting (citation within citation) unclear Author: johneast (Enthusiast) Date: 09-08-2008 01:48 AM Leanne's posting was referring to author-date styles, like Harvard or APA.   If you are using a footnote style, I think the best option is to insert the original reference in the footnote. Then type in the footnote: ", quoted in " and insert the citing reference. The only problem is that you will get a full stop after the first reference. You can edit the Chicago 15A style in EndNote to remove the full stop at the end of the references in the footnotes, but this can create a few other problems (I think, for example, you would get some redundant spaces before page numbers in repeat citations).    Using the above procedure, you will get two references in the bibliography, one for each source. For the original source, you could insert text into a custom field in the reference in your library containing the full note: Quoted in John Smith, etc. Then you would have to edit the output style to add that field at the end of references in the bibliography.   EndNote has never coped well with footnote styles. I wish Thomson would put some work into improving this, but I guess the problems are too complex and the market too small.

Subject: Re: EndNote x1 Limitations Author: JasonR (Thomson Reuters) Date: 09-09-2008 03:41 PM Virginia is correct. Since version 8 EndNote has been technically "unlimited" in file size or number of records. Admittedly, "unlimited" is a pretty hard number to verify but we routinely test internally with libraries with as many as half a million records with no issues. As with most other applications, EndNote's performance with large files will be substantially impacted by an individual computer's processor speed and available memory.   Jason Rollins, EndNote Product Development

However, the Windows operating system typically imposes a limit to the overall length of a file "path" to a maximum of 244-260 characters - depending on the exact conditions/version of the operating system. EndNote's attached files are impacted by this Windows limitation as are nearly all other files used on a Windows-based computer.   I would recommend moving the PDF / or the EndNote library (including .data folder) in question to a location that is not deeply nested in a set of folders and see if this resolves the issue.  So, it doesn't look like it is too long unless your library is deeply nested.  How are you attaching your PDFs (drag and drop to the item in the library list window, Add PDF?)  Do they not appear as an icon, or are they not accessible when you try to open them?  Are there folders appearing in the PDF folder of the DATA folder?

Author: Leanne (Enthusiast) Date: 09-10-2008 05:54 PM You want to turn off a CWYW preference from either the endnote word toolbar, EnPref, or the endnote toolbars, Endnote tools, "Cite while you write preferences" - and turn off "open endnote when word is opened".  Then  when you want endnote to open, just click on the EN  button, and it will open.    Look at some of the other options there and turn them off, or on as you prefer. For example, if you would rather NOT have CWYW as an automatic feature.  Once a new document has been created, this has no effect on that specific document, and is only applied to new word documents.  Turning it on and off on a previously created document is controlled thru the format bibliography menu.    New users will also want to go thru the Endnote preferences (in Endnote, Edit, Preferences), in particular to set the default library you want to open automatically, and just look at some of the other options available there.

I don't think it will work otherwise, unless you have a valid digital object identifier in the DOI field.   We initially had problems with the Find Full Text function. We discovered that this is because EndNote was detecting the Windows proxy settings on our PCs. Here we use a proxy on staff machines that requires us to authenticate when we access external websites. EndNote has no means of authenticating, so it was not able to send any requests to external servers.  The workaround to this was to clear the proxy settings. The easiest way to do this is in Internet Explorer. Click on Tools>Internet Options>Connections>LAN Settings, and then uncheck all boxes.

Although the affiliation data appears on the web version of this record, they are not including that data in the record that they export to EndNote, ProCite and Reference Manager.   If the affiliation data was included in a field tagged: AD  - , then EndNote would import it into the Author Address field.

In our continued work on cost effective wastewater heavy metal removal agents and methods using local material, this study examines the interactions of chromium(III), copper(II), zinc(II), cadmium(II), mercury(II) and lead(II) cations with natural mixed clay minerals from Tundulu in Malawi using extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) spectroscopy. The mixed clays were previously characterised and found to contain illite, low ordered kaolinite, mixed layer minerals and the non-clay mineral carbonate fluoroapatite with a mean pHPZC of 9.63. The EXAFS analyses provided qualitative evidence that oxygen atoms occupy the first coordination shells in all the studied central atoms. The metal species on the clay mineral surfaces seem to be adsorbates and/or precipitates of hydrolysis products. Chromium(III) forms a polynuclear hydrolysis complex on the mineral surface with Cr-O bond and Cr...Cr distances of 2.00 and 3.03 Å, respectively, which is indicative of a chain structure with edge sharing CrO6 octahedra. Copper(II) is bound to phosphate groups on the surface at low pH and has a first shell of coordinated oxygen atoms with Jahn-Teller distortion as revealed by different Cu-O bonds of 1.96 Å for the equatorial ones, at 2.30 and 2.65 Å for the axial oxygens, and a Cu-P distance at 3.29 Å is distinguished as well. Upon treatment at neutral pH copper(I) oxide seems to be the main precipitation product on the clay surface. At neutral pH zinc(II) forms also polynuclear hydrolysis complexes with Zn-O bond and Zn...Zn distances of 2.01 and 3.11 Å, respectively, which shows the presence of edge sharing ZnO4 tetrahedra. Cadmium(II) is adsorbed to the clay surfaces as a six-coordinated CdO6 complex in octahedral fashion, but it is not possible to distinguish if cadmium is hydrated or partly hydrolysed. Mercury(II) is present as linear O-Hg-O units but without any observable Hg...Hg distance at high pH showing that mercury(II) is hydrolysed but not present as mercury(II) oxide. At low pH, linear O-Hg-Hg-O units are present showing that mercury(II) is reduced to mercury(I). No precise chemical environment around the lead(II) could be obtained for the lead(II) treated clays due to formation of different hydrolysis structures with multiple coordination numbers by lead(II) salts on the mixed clays.

Subject: Re: 'Harvard' style for Emerald journals? Author: Leanne (Enthusiast) Date: 09-15-2008 08:12 PM Sorry for your frustration.   The power of Endnote is that you can edit a style to suit the particular journal's requirements. It is, in fact, dangerous to assume that just because a journal style is available in Endnote, that it is exactly correct, as journals change their minds over time.   Editing a preexisting style is pretty easy, although it usually takes a bit of tweaking. When you open the style manager (from edit > output styles) you can view style previews, and try to pick one that is closest. Then "edit" it and save it as a new name. You might then have to open the manager again to select it and get it to display in your list. The PDF manual and help features of the program help with instruction on how to edit a style.   This is primarily a users' forum and it is really nice that the Endnote techs do drop in from time to time. But there is official tech support which is very good at responding, available from the http://www.endnote.com website. And there is also a style finder (albeit not very user friendly) and more importantly a place to request new styles at http://www.endnote.com/support/enstyles.asp.

Subject: Re: How can I set "Default Reference Type" as multi-types rather than only one ref. type? Author: johneast (Enthusiast) Date: 09-16-2008 04:35 AM You can only set one default reference type. For connection files to library catalogues, this would normally be Book.   Most library catalogues don't contain many journal articles, although they often have audiovisual material, maps and theses.   To get the connection file to identify reference types which do not match the default, you edit the Templates within the connection file. If you open the Library of Congress connection file, and look at the first line(s) of the templates for Audiovisual Material, Map or Thesis, you will get some idea of how this is done. These rows at the top of the template which define the reference type are called Reference Type Tags. You will find more information on this in the "Filters" chapter in the EndNote manual.   Identifying journal articles might be difficult. You have to find some data in the journal article MARC records which is unique to journal articles. Perhaps they have a 773 tag? If so, your reference type tag might look something like:      773       `.`   This would tell EndNote that any references which had a period in the 773 field were Journal Articles. You can have more than one reference type tag in a template.

If your institution does not have "custom journal links" set-up for  ISI Web of Knowledge, ask your librarian to do this - this is easy and free.   -  If you are associated with an institution that has access to EndNote Web, create a free account and log-in. Also be sure your account information is complete in the EndNote - Preferences - EndNote Web panel.   - If DOI information is available for the records you want EndNote to try to find full text for, be sure this is in the "DOI" field in the EndNote record.   Also, we are in the process of adding some improvements to the accuracy and performance of the EndNote Find Full Text feature for the upcoming X2.01 patch.

Author: SI (Visitor) Date: 09-17-2008 03:58 AM Now I can import my library records with more than one Reference Type. As John said, I follow ideas of LoC and for Journal Article and Conference Paper, I use tag 773. subfield $t as Journal or Conference Name and subfield $g as Volume, Issue no, Page no, etc. for Journal Article and Date, Location, Page no for Conference Paper. I use subfield $n for differentiation of whether Journal Article or Conference Paper and put in Connection Template first row. Then almost are working.   But at tag 773, subfield g, I entered page no for example pp. 34-40. But after imported to EndNote, "pp." is missing and only 34-40 is appeared. Other data such as "Vol. xx, No. xx", etc. are appeared.   Because our library index papers of our faculty members and students.    With much thanks

Thank you for your time and persistence in helping me resolve this puzzle.  I tried your syntax and it works perfectly for reports having urls (situations #1 and #2 described in my original posting).  As for paper-based reports (no urls), the word "Retrieve" appears in the reference - but that's one word less than the original 2-word "Retrieve from" phrase  my original syntax was generating, so your version may be heading in the right direction.  I'm not sure why I'm not getting the same results as you so will need to do further checking.   On a side note, thanks for your prior postings about the APA Style Guide to Electronic References (2007) which is helping  me to tweak my output style reference templates.

However, the Windows operating system typically imposes a limit to the overall length of a file "path" to a maximum of 244-260 characters - depending on the exact conditions/version of the operating system. EndNote's attached files are impacted by this Windows limitation as are nearly all other files used on a Windows-based computer."   As for methods for handling pdfs, there are various strategies.  Before attaching the pdfs to the corresponding entry in your EndNote library the pdf could be saved by:  1) truncating the title, 2) using author(s) last name and publication date, 3) combination of methods #1 and #2), 4) assigning the pdf the same number as the EndNote reference entry. If you have the full version of Adobe Acrobat (Standard or Professional), you can index each pdf using the full title, author names, subject, and keywords.  Then you can either attach the indexed pdfs to your EndNote library or keep them in a separate folder and use Windows or Acrobat's search capability to locate materials.   If you are new to EndNote, it may be best to keep your pdfs with the corresponding reference but you can search the archives for further messages which may help you decide what strategy best fits your needs.

Subject: Re: PROBLEM - Endnote X puts author initials into citations Author: Leanne (Enthusiast) Date: 09-17-2008 02:49 PM This is likely caused by Endnote thinking that you have two authors with Cook as the surname and it needs to "disambugate" them.  If you are referencing two records with Cook as the author - and they are the same author, open both records and copy the author name and initials from one and replace the other with that version.  This is usually the result of some very subtle difference between the initials, spacing or some invisible character in one or the other of the author names.

Subject: Re: Importing excel files into Endnote X2 Author: emilyatchemlib (User) Date: 09-17-2008 03:17 PM Siva,   The EN X2 online manual has instructions for importing tab-delimited files.  Check the index under "Importing -- Tab-delimited files". You will have to specify a reference tytpe for each record. If you have only one type of reference, you can specify that type as default. Secondly, "all field names and reference type names in the file must be identical to those in EndNote. See the List of Reference Types for a listing of all of the reference types and field names."  Thirdly, you may wish to parse your "vol" field into volume and issue.  Your image shows volume and issue in the same column.   In my experience, converting spreadsheet or word processing files is never 100% successful. You may need to weight the time factor of trying to import your excel file versus finding the records  in an online database and importing them or using a connection database.   Good luck!  Emily

Personally I think the lack of any if-then syntax in EndNote output styles precludes EndNote coping well with the complexities of a referencing style such as APA.   I've had a bit of a play with using the Department/Division field, but can't see how it works if the reference doesn't have an organisation name in the retrieval statement (which is the commonest situation).   Apart from somewhat munting the URL field by including the organisation name within it, I still think this is the most practical solution - particularly if the EndNote user is only/mainly using APA. The template I suggested earlier works for both print and electronic reports without leaving a hanging "Retrieved from" statement. (By the way, the addition of database in the retrieval statement is there because we suggest this reference type for other formats that arise in APA).

Subject: Re: PROBLEM - Endnote X does not complete citation Author: Leanne (Enthusiast) Date: 09-18-2008 02:40 PM It sounds to me like CWYW has been turned off.  Have you tried manually "format bibliography"?    In X2 it is "instant formating" where, if CWYW is off, it says "turn on".  In some other versions it say "enable".    This can get turned off, if you unformat the references at some point, or sometimes it just gets turned off.    The other thing to check is which style is being used to format the paper, although I don't think there is any default options that would leave in the record number.    But - I just noticed this-- Is it really a regular parenthesis and not curley brackets?  If this was put in manually, Endnote may not be recognizing it as a endnote citation?  replace the (_) with {_}

Author: jbokor (New User) Date: 09-18-2008 08:16 PM OK, but I have the same original problem.  I have a fairly large document created by combining several smaller ones.  Each one was created using different EndNote Libraries (different co-authors).  So now the full document bibliography does not have the correct order.  It should be in the order the citations appear in the text, but it's not.  For example, the first citation in the document is not [1], instead it's [10].   The citation numbers do match up correctly to the Bibliography numbers.  But I can't get it to re-order properly.

Subject: Re: citations suddenly all out of order! Please Help! Author: Leanne (Enthusiast) Date: 09-18-2008 09:05 PM Okay the other time I have seen this happen is if there are figure legends in text boxes with references.  Word (and subsequently Endnote) considers  these items at the front or first, and so the references imbedded in them, are counted first. This problem can be solved by using a frame instead of a text box. Text boxes are part of the "graphics layer", while frames are part of the "text layer". See http://www.endnote.com/support/faqs/CWYW/faq21.asp for discussion and how to make the conversion.

Subject: Re: How can I set "Default Reference Type" as multi-types rather than only one ref. type? Author: johneast (Enthusiast) Date: 09-19-2008 12:10 AM The purpose of an EndNote filter or connection file is to import raw data: just the volume number, just the page numbers, etc.   EndNote has output styles that take that data, and add any necessary abbreviations (like v. or vol. or pp.) to produce references formatted in many bibliographic formats.   However, if you really want the EndNote connection file to import the pp. before the Pages, you probably need to edit your connection file. Open it for editing, and go to the "Field Editing" section. Select Field Editing for the Pages field. You should see that EndNote is removing abbreviations like "p."  Change those settings.

Subject: Re: Bibliography Font Style Author: Leanne (Enthusiast) Date: 09-19-2008 01:08 AM If the paragraph where the bibliography is inserted is formated as Bold, which might happen for example if you but the bolded "Reference" heading and then hit carriage return,  or if there is no paragraph symbol after the heading "References" which is bolded then the references might come out bolded.  If you select the whole of the references including paragraph symbols before and after the formatted references (just to be sure) and unbold everything and then reformat the paper, I think you will find that the appropriate bolding of specific sections will be restored.  Alternatively delete the bibliography and make sure there is a  paragraph after the title heading is not bolded and is not a "heading" papagraph type (body text or normal).    To see the paragraph symbols, you can click on the reverse P in the word toolbar, which is right in front of the % view box.

Subject: Re: Endnote killer lag under Vista X64 Author: shuttesh (New User) Date: 09-19-2008 04:48 PM Well I can make one suggestion to you based on my own experience. Even though X2 was supposed to fix all the 64-bit problems, it seems to work even worse than X1. I uninstalled X2 and put X1 back on my 64-bit machine, THEN I unchecked the two options as it says in the workaround and now the lag is gone for the most part. So X2 is definitely defective and apparently created more problems than it fixed.   Where I'm still having the huge lag issue is when I open Outlook 2003. I know that Outlook opens Word in the background as its mail editor and, therefore, it opens the Endnote add-in with word. However, I doubled checked the CWYW options from the Endnote menu item in EndNote and the options are unchecked. But the lag is still there just like it was under Word before I unchecked the options. This just isn't going to work. I need to finish my PhD and I can't wait around for a year or two while Thomson figures this one out. Anyone have a suggestion for reference software other than RefWorks? That's my last resort but it may be the only one...

I would find a different solution for putting in references until the very end. Write (ref Muller et al, 2006) and then search for all "ref" words in the end and replace them with references. Or use endnote when a new draft has taken shape, final format, not bother about duplicates, and search for 200 and 199 to find all references in the very end and replace them with the citation. Or find another system. And beware of quickly modifying an illustrator figure according to your text in the background; it won't be quick, quit word and endnote for that. bokeh helps some, take cpu away from endnote. Also, I discovered that this "vshield" in my istat menu top 5 list is mcafee virex (required by the University, so you might have it too) going crazy after the leopard update. google "mcafee virex vshield uninstall" or something and run that uninstaller, this helped a lot. otherwise, breathe. really.

Subject: Re: Critical Bug in CWYW for Word 2008 (Mac) Author: wdtucker (New User) Date: 09-20-2008 10:11 AM Thanks for the recommendations, people. I used that form to complain about Endnote for Mac bugs in general experienced since release 7. I guess I'm just slow. Or rather, I allowed myself to become 'dependent' on Endnote.   It's very easy for Endnote staff to point fingers at Word and say it's Microsoft's fault that Word consumes 100% CPU when Endnote tries to do its job, or that it's Microsoft's fault that Word crashes when Endnote reformats the bibliography or can't link up a reference.    No, man. It's not Word's fault. Endnote is not compatible with Word. It's very plain.   Endnote is also incompatible with itself - it crashes itself when 'recovering' my enl database!    I have unformatted citations, discontinued using Endnote and have been editing a large docx in Word 2008 for several weeks WITHOUT ONE PROBLEM.    I still get that annoyed greyed out toolbar, but that's easy to avoid. Word no longer consumes 100% CPU or crashes. Not even once since discontinuing integration with Endnote. But I don't have my references either!   Any suggestions other than purchasing other software? My plan now is to somehow regenerate the bibliography with Endnote, print the bibliography to PDF, copy and paste to Textedit, then copy and paste to Word and reformat the entries and citations with APA to do it the old fashioned way. Crazy but it's true.    bill

It has been a while since I visited the endnote website, and I see now that X2 is available for the Mac. I have no idea if all the problems have been fixed with this new release and without any confirmation I have no plans to plunk any more money.   Bill, you mention that you get the grayed out toolbars in Word 2008. Is this with endnote installed or uninstalled? This was so much of an annoyance that I uninstalled endnotes, including the installed .dot file in the Word startup folder, and all was okay again.   I know you are not after suggestions for other software, but after going through hell with endnote, the application "bookends" has been a heaven send! :)  My university has a very particular Harvard format to follow for writing up the PhD thesis. Essentially they have tailored the format so that non-English texts (i.e. mainly Asian) can be cited. So I have had to change the Havard format in the software which was a breeze in Bookends. I am not sure, but I believe it can also import endnote databases. A quick check on their website should let you know if this is possible. Although it means purchasing other software, it might be well worth it for you in the end.   All the best in your research ... that is what endnote should be really supporting us in, not having to worry about the technical stuff so we can concentrate on our research ... but it has almost been the other way around!!!!   Cheers! :)   Darren Tokyo

Subject: Re: Word 2004 Mac with Endnote X1 slow and hot Author: widulle (New User) Date: 09-20-2008 01:23 PM Hi Schmunzelm,    Thanks for your advice. Working with unformatted references is fine, my Word-CPU-Load ist quite normal (average 10 - 25% or so). So Word and Endnote is working fine. I fear only document or program crashes in the end, when Endnote has to format hundreds of references. I'd prefer another program, if I risk my work (of course I would try with a copy), but what if the document crashs reliably? Move all references to a different program? Insert everything manually - real catastrophy in the end of a thesis ... so I'd like to prevent this, before I arrive at 200 pages.   Antivirus: I work with Intego Virus Barrier - which affords only very few capacity, so that's no problem. I also deactivated Virus Barrier, no effects on CPU-Load.   I wrote two books in the last years for my University-lectures, Endnote was working fine up to 220 pages, but I found the CPU-Load not that high with older versions of Endnote.   Anything to do? My question goes also to the Moderator or technical Support.... W. Widulle

Subject: Re: Critical Bug in CWYW for Word 2008 (Mac) Author: wdtucker (Visitor) Date: 09-20-2008 05:12 PM Hi Darren (and all). I did not uninstall Endnote X1 yet, so it is still causing the greyed out menu problems in Word 2008. But you just have to _do_ something in Word, e.g. Save the file or follow what other people did (see above) and the menu ungreys itself.   I have made another post elsewhere to learn how to properly uninstall Endnote so I can try to reinstall it. I see that X1 did not remove X when X1 installed. I want to remove them both cleanly, and try to install X1 then the CWYW patch and try again. I must submit my thesis in two weeks! Thus, I do not want to change software tools now at the last minute. I must endure the pain that is Endnote!   I have experienced so many problems with Endnote since release 7, 8, 9, X and now X1. There is no way I will purchase X2. Word X, 2004, 2008. It also doesn't matter. Endnote still frequently causes Word to consume 100% CPU, or causes Word to crash, crashes itself, and causes the Word menu to grey!   I am not convinced Endnote is worth purchasing, upgrading or using anymore. It is driving its users away. And that's a shame because it promised so much yet has delivered more frustration than anything else. I kept using it to save me time but like you. Unfortunately, the opposite has occurred and after 5 years or so, Thomson/ISI/Endnote still does not seem able to fix these problems.   After I submit my thesis, goodbye Endnote & Word, hello OpenOffice or LaTeX or bookends  - - whatever! Just something that works, please!   bill

Subject: Re: Capitalizing properly Author: johneast (Enthusiast) Date: 09-22-2008 12:12 AM You're quite right. The capitalization option in the output style only applies to the Primary Title field in references. There is no way of automatically changing the capitalization of the Secondary or Tertiary Title field. And this hasn't changed in EndNote X2.   This has always been a weakness in EndNote. There is no option except to change the capitalization of the references in your library. And you may then have to change them back again when you use a different style.

Thanks again, hopefully someone else can chime in? Yes, EndNote allows online searching and downloading of references from databases into your EndNote library.  This feature is a definite plus for conducting research.  EndNote provides a variety of connection files which allow you to connect directly to a designated database (unless a subscription or login is required).  You could also use EndNote's filters to import references in certain cases where a connection file is unavailable.   In looking at your first posting, other issues you may also want to consider: 1.  Do you think at some point you may want to work collaboratively with others (who may be using EndNote) and will RPS allow exporting of your references in a form that your colleagues may import them into EndNote?  If so, then using EndNote may be a better fit for all parties. 2. Do you think you might have plans to publish your research and if so, do the publications use APA or another format (e.g., Chicago) style?  It seems that RPS pricing is based per template so if you may need to purchase additional templates which will add to your intiial software cost.  On the other hand, EndNote includes many styles but it may be more than what you may need. 3. Do you think your work may call upon having to work with images/figures, URLs, equations, audio files, pdf files?  If so, EndNote enables adding and cataloguing these materials within a library which you may then incorporate in your work. (It's also easier to manage materials which are "all in one place" than scattered in different folders or locations on your computer.)   EndNote's APA style may need some tweaking to accommodate electronic resources as outlined by the APA Style Guide to Electronic Resources (2007).  I've also found it necessary to make some other adjustments for a few of the reference types to conform to APA requirements, although the key types (i.e., book, book section, journal article, magazine, etc.) work fine.  But I've found this a minor trade-off to EndNote's expansive capacity for online database searching and ability to manage and cataloge a wide variety of reference materials.

Subject: Re: Critical Bug in CWYW for Word 2008 (Mac) Author: wdtucker (Visitor) Date: 09-22-2008 11:16 AM I finally uninstalled Endnote. Word's buttons are no longer greyed out. Word no longer endlessly spins wasting CPU when I ask Endnote to do something. My document no longer expands to 500 pages because Endnote reformats the bibliography to some strange style. Now I will only deal with Word's deficiencies and not those caused by Endnote's poor integration with Word. Here's how I did it.   Follow Endnote's technical support suggestions, with the noted caveat:   You may need to clean up the field codes in your document.  Try the following steps: 1.  Make a backup of your document.  2.  Choose the "Tools > EndNote > Unformat Citations" command, which will remove the reference list and revert the citations.  3.  Do a [Apple]+A on the keyboard to highlight everything.   NB: the next step removes many Word cross references especially wrt lists of figures and tables   4.  Do a [Apple]+6 (above the "T" and "Y" key) to remove any additional hidden field codes.  5.  Do a [Apple]+C to copy the highlighted text.  6.  Open a new document and do a [Apple]+V to paste.  You should now be able to format this cleaned up version of the document without running into problems.    I added the NB (in South Africa this is some Latin abbreviation for WATCH OUT!!!!). Once you Apple-6, you lose a lot of things that Word put in to help manage automatic numbering and cross-referencing, especially wrt figures and tables. I think this is because Endnote also mucks with Figures and tables whether you want it to or not.   I am now working with a docx after using Endnote to unformat its own citations. However, I did manage to save an Endnote-formatted bibliography first, as follows:   NB: _before_ unformat citiations 1. generate your bibliography with Endnote as usual (providing you still can and still have some patience left) 2. close Endnote, hide its toolbar within Word 2008, then close Word 3. reopen the docx in Word. Then highlight and copy (apple-C) the bibliography, create a new Word document, and paste (apple-V) there 4. Make sure the pasted bibliography is normal text, and not Endnote-formatted. If you can't figure out how to do this, then rather paste into Textedit or some other non-Word editor so you get just the text and not Endnote's underlying format tags. Save it. 5. In Word, Tools->Endnote->Unformat citations 6. copy and paste the Endnote-free bibliography from that newly created file back into the original document where _you_ want it! :-) 7. Uninstall Endnote (close any open library, then use the Customizer. 8. Copy any modified ens or other customised files before you trash the Applications->Endnote X1 folder (you never know - some other utlitity like Bookends might import them!) 9. If you start up Word again, you'll notice the Endnote menu is still in Tools! That uninstall process is deficient! Simply go to ~/Applications/Microsoft Office 2008/Office/Startup/Word and remove the Endnote bundle.   You're finally free of Endnote! You just have to edit your citations and references by hand. Bummer. But that's what APA was designed for in the first place.    However, I still see the Endnote toolbar inside Word even though I completely uninstalled and deleted Endnote! Someone please help me get Endnote out of Word completely! Otherwise, I'm just gonna uninstall Word and reinstall it.

Subject: Re: How can I download fulltext via endnote x2 from the wiley and other journals! Author: jfullert (Visitor) Date: 09-23-2008 08:09 PM The OpenURL search from EndNote can be configured to use the ezproxy version of the OpenURL server.   In my university library's case, for the OpenURL path, we input the exproxy address and then the OpenURL server address.   general example   http://ezproxy.univ.edu:2048/login?url=http://openurl.univ.edu:9003/univ   As different as each vendor's site may be, with the pdf link not being located the same way, I wonder how much value the full text search will have *compared* to the OpenURL search that uses a powerful database aware of an agency's subscriptions. I'd like if there were an official comparison. Maybe wording like, OpenURL is typically better, if your affiliated agency has an OpenURL server. However, find full text can find pdf's in the following cases. (Then list the cases. If finding the pdf's is dependent on IP authentication for subscription resources, make that evident. If OpenURL is successful a higher percentage of the time for subscription resources, say that.)   It's possible that OpenURL is a bit undefined as a subject because: 1) not everyone has access to an OpenURL service that accesses subscription items--this effects how many customers have an OpenURL server, how Thomson can evaluate it's value, and how intutitive it is to communicate it's value to new users; 2) different agencies likely have their OpenURL services defined in different ways. For example, my university library shows as the result of an OpenURL search whether we have the resource available online, and it shows links to search for the resource in our library catalogs as well as an option to request it through interlibrary loan if we do not have it online.   Other factors that affect the use of OpenURL is that EndNote cannot be configured for the OpenURL server at an agency when the agency makes site license copies available. Each copy has to be individually configured. And the value of OpenURL is not intuitive.   Have a nice day John Paul Fullerton

If so, make sure you actually removed those .dotm files from the redirected EndNote AppData folder during the move to the Word\STARTUP folder.   I don't know if I've limited some other functionality with this, but so far the error hasn't returned and users haven't complained *yet* about any trouble, but I still have a few more to upgrade to X2, so who knows. :)

You've turned on view codes in Word and what you are see is EndNote's embedded coding, pressing the Alt Key and F9 (if your using a Windows pc) will return you to a normal view.   Alt+F9 is quite useful when you teach EndNote as it's a great way to show trainees why EndNote formatted documents get so large, so quickly. I also go to the bibliography section and there all you will find is a single code which builds the bibliography.

Subject: Re: make edits to library appear in text Author: Leanne (Enthusiast) Date: 09-26-2008 03:17 PM The easiest way is to unformat and reformat.  Sometimes you need to close and open the paper, to fully rid it of the traveling library, which is where it "retains" the old info, and thinks that the record in the library is a different record.  If the author has changed, you might have to select that record to insert again.  - but that is a pretty painless process cause it usually picks up only the correct one, or a couple to chose from .

Subject: Re: make edits to library appear in text Author: Leanne (Enthusiast) Date: 09-26-2008 08:30 PM Changes in author, year (or record number) make Endnote think they are different records.  Otherwise I think it usually updates the record. One way to ensure that they are still linked is to try editing the record by selecting the formated citation and using the Word tools>Endnote tools> edit Library reference to make the changes.  This automatically retains the correct link, even if you change the Author name (tested in Endnote X2).  Unfortunately, you can't do this from the reference list, it has to be from the citation, which makes it a bit cumbersome, because most of the time you notice the problem in the list and not in the text.

Subject: Re: Strange results for smart groups Author: Kmalbert1 (New User) Date: 09-30-2008 07:43 PM Jason, Could you explain what Smart Groups are intended to be used for? I so far can't figure it out and am getting the same erratic results reported by the other poster. If they're not to be used in conjunction with online searches, what are they supposed to be used for? I do think the documentation ought to explain this better. This is what it mostly says:  "Smart groups are built with search strategies. Smart groups are dynamically updated as you add references to and edit references in the library."   Does this mean they are only updated when you manually add or edit references? If so, I don't understand how/why this would be useful.   Thanks,   Karen Albert Fox Chase Cancer Center

Subject: Re: Strange results for smart groups Author: JasonR (Thomson Reuters) Date: 09-30-2008 08:39 PM In EndNote X2, "Smart Groups" are supposed to be created against a local library/search - not against Online Searches. To create a "Smart Group", choose Groups > Create Smart Group. This opens the "Create Smart Group" dialog. Here you can enter search criteria that can be saved. Once created/saved a Smart Group will be active for your library. Every time something changes in your library that meets the criteria of your Smart Group, it will be updated automatically.   For a very simple example, if I create a Smart Group for Author name "Rollins", every time I add a new record that contains this author name to my library, it will also automatically get added to this Smart Group.   Jason Rollins, EndNote Product Development

Subject: Re: Word 2004 Mac with Endnote X1 slow and hot Author: cpompili (Visitor) Date: 10-01-2008 11:58 AM hi widulle   I've just finished a phd with over 500 footnotes (oxford author title) and large bibliography with about 300pages of text. It's been going for some years and there have been ongoing scary moments between MS Word x, 2001, 2004 on Mac and EN from v.6 to my current vers.X1.   The biggest problem causing corruptions has been the active link CWYW between Word and EN. BTW, I did think of using Word's 'Master Document' feature with embedded links to other discrete Word docs for each chapter but all the reports I've seen suggest that this too is buggy and to avoid at all costs for doing large docs eg PhD.   So here' my normal working process for ENX1/Word2k4 on Mac OS X 10.4.11. NB: I also use a multiple clipboard applic (CopyPaste-X at http://www.copypaste-x.com/ This saves enormous amounts of time flipping back and forth between the two applics):    ENX1: ? turn off CWYW by going to Word>Tools>Templates & Add-ins... uncheck the three add-ins (EndNote CWYW Commands.dot; EndNote Web CWYW Commands.dot; EndNote CWYW Word 2004) (NB: these must be unchecked otherwise I got the constant spinning beachball of death everytime I made changes to a record and then ENX1 would unexpectedly quit without warning!) ? Copy the record eg { , Smith 2008 #192} to one of the multiple clipboards ? using command-K (Edit>Copy Formatted) copy the record to another of the multiple clipboards   Word2k4: ?  paste the unformatted record in the  footnote (or body text ) from the multiple clipboard. Leave unformatted. ? in the same footnote, immediately after the unformatted citation, past the formatted citation, highlight and make invisible so that I have a record of what is actually meant to be there at that footnote in case of corruptions ? while I'm working I often have the Show Invisible characters on so that I can check the footnotes against the body text as it's in progress; ? periodically at certain stage points in the writing, I would format the Bibliography. Initially, when the document was still quite small and not too many citations, this would work OK but progressively got more unstable and would give me Communication Errors between EN and Word and file corruptions.   Solved this about 1 yr ago by first doing: ? Turn on CWYW by going to Word>Tools>Templates & Add-ins... check the three add-ins (EndNote CWYW Commands.dot; EndNote Web CWYW Commands.dot; EndNote CWYW Word 2004) and do  'unformat all citations' (takes about 15'). Then after making a backup to different folder, format the Bibliography from scratch (can take up to 1hr). ? Once Bibliography complete, then Word>Tools>Templates & Add-ins... uncheck the three add-ins (EndNote CWYW Commands.dot; EndNote Web CWYW Commands.dot; EndNote CWYW Word 2004)   This works for me every time now and avoids the Comm Errrors.   NB: final advice working with Word 2k4: Word has been notoriously flaky and prone to crashing if I make too many overwrites to the same file in the same folder location. So I use a Father, Mother, Daughter1, Daughter2, Daugther3 etc number of folder locations inside a main folder directory. I only ever do about 10 overwrites and then do a 'Save As' to the next folder in the cycle and so on. Word tends to leave a trail of temporary files and after about 30 overwrites or about 2hrs work,  I close the file so that Word removes its temp files and then I open the doc again and continue working in this way. If I end up doing to many overwrites and even with folder changes, Word will unexpectedly crash. Years ago this often caused file corruptions but in recent years has been harmless, apart from losing any unsaved work. BTW I always have autorecover/autosave ON in Word   This has worked reliably for some years for me, cheers claudio

I'll think about your advice and use some of it. Especially working with invisible citations was very helpful, I could enter the whole specification and so be sure of what I ment years ago. I hope to finish my phd next year without upgrading word or endnote, so I hope, the record names could be used without changes of record number. I build me a document history, so everytime I work on it, I take a new copy (versions1 to ...145), and of course autosave is active. Saving documents in new folders and using save as... seems also very helpful.   The last two years I wrote two textbooks for my students, about 220 pages each (word and endnote) this was working quite fine, without major crashes, but the new versions on Mac OS 10.5 cause this maximum CPU-load, so I want to take care.   Thanks again and all the best Wolfgang

Then I tried one thing: I changed content of some records and saved my library, so the relevant record number (used for formatting the reference) didn't change. This calmed me a lot.   The rest I'll see, let's keep the baby in the bathtub.   yours, sincerely Wolfgang

That's a good strategy--automatically assign new references to a group and delete or move from group once checked.   Another idea I had after sending my question was using a Smart Group based on the user's custom field (when the custom field contains "yes" then display the item in the Smart Group). That could be used to automatically display either all items that had been checked or had not been checked. As your note indicates, the main issue for the user may just be identifying items that had not been checked.   Have a nice day John Paul Fullerton />

Subject: Re: Strange results for smart groups Author: JasonR (Thomson Reuters) Date: 10-01-2008 08:37 PM Any new records added to your library - from an import, online search, etc will be included in a Smart Group presuming the group criteria is met. The issue related to Online Searches discussed earlier is slightly different.   You actually have two options for creating Smart Groups - one is to create from the Groups menu. The second option is to perform a search - online or local and then choose "Convert to Smart Group" - meaning "convert this search strategy to a Smart Group in my library". This was not designed to be used when doing an Online Search. There is a bug in EndNote X2 that allows this when this option should not be active. This bug is relatively harmless but can result in odd results particularly when converting a search against PubMed to a Smart Group because of the way fields are named and mapped.   In the upcoming X2.01 patch, we are disabling the option to  "Convert to Smart Group" from Online Searches as we had originally intended to.   Jason Rollins, EndNote Product Development

My doc is not that huge, but I also prefer not losing things to more convenience. Switching to endnote and copy-pasting the citation with apple-tab, -c, -tab, -v is much faster to my hands than mousing to tools sub-sub-menus or to the little toolbar button, even if I don't do the hide procedure. So I don't miss CWYW. I also found that working with cleanly unformatted citations and formatting them from time to time takes a long while but is worth it, because it's a mess and takes forever to modify a formatted citation or insert another one in between. Sometimes I forgot to disactivate track changes when formatting, which is a mess too. Track changes may have been part of my CPU problem, I need to have it on always and it may use a lot.    I always have my current document on the desktop. I regularly quit Word, duplicate, rename the duplicate, and collect the old backup files in a folder. I hope that's not confusing for Word and is equal to "save as".    Best, Gudrun

It seems to work better with Firefox than Internet Explorer. It will certainly capture a reference from PubMed or ScienceDirect, but it doesn't seem to have much success with a normal webpage. You would think it could easily extract at least the title and URL of the page, but it doesn't seem to.   This "screen scraping" function works much better in RefWorks and (I think) Zotero, so it is probably something that the EndNote developers need to work on.

I don't use Vista regularly, but I did fix this on someone else's Vista computer a while ago. I'm not sure, but maybe there's a setting in Vista (within all those IMHO highly annoying security features) that prevents you from editing things that are in the /Program Files/directory. I just checked out the other computer, though, and it's kept the read-only settings I put on it, but I'm not sure what we did to make it stick. Did you change read-only for the folder as a whole, or for the style files?    The work-around I would suggest - unless you get a response from someone who understands Vista better -  is to go into EndNote then Edit>Preferences>Folder Locations, and change the location of your styles folder (and filters and import etc. if needed) to somewhere else on your computer, maybe within your My Documents.

Subject: Re: Bibliography layout problems Author: Leanne (Enthusiast) Date: 10-03-2008 06:04 PM Yes, I ran into this problem a few years ago.  The format bibliography menu for Layout, will not override the hanging indent (none) setting in the Layout of the style itself.    In contrast, you can override the hanging indent, (all paragraphs) setting in the style, though, thru the format bibliography Layout menu.  - so it is easy to see why someone just might get confused!  I suppose we should report this as a bug.  The hanging indent properties probably should be in one place or the other, but not both.    Check out the lower right hand option in the attached gif and see what your style has there.

You can even put those words in your Keywords section, and then search on those to pull up the references (particularly if you are still in X or earlier).    Making them a smart tag would automatically assign them to the appropriate group (available in X2).

Subject: Re: Gripes About the New Contract for Downloads Author: noksagt (New User) Date: 10-06-2008 07:22 AM Another common practice that is not obviously eliminated is sharing a subset of files with other EndNote users.  My previous research group had styles of journals we used and connection files for databases we used in a common location. This made it very easy to make a minimal installation of EndNote on new workstatons and also to grab missing files without slogging through the online repository.  Many other groups and libraries seem to do something similar.  Again, this practice makes EndNote more valuable.

Subject: Re: Inserting data into Label field for many records Author: jdm32 (New User) Date: 10-06-2008 03:49 PM Thanks for the reply, I think this will work.  I have created an export style that will put the "Accession Number" in the Label field (wanted to try something simple first).  This style was just "Show All" edited in the Label field only, because I want to keep all the data.  When I export the library to a text file the Accession Number does show up in the Label field, but I cannot get Endnote to Import this text file into a new library, the new library remains blank.    So I did some reading in the help section and it suggested exporting in a tagged format, so I exported the library into an .xml file.  I can successfully import the .xml file into a new library, but the Accession Number is not in the Label field!  When I opened the .xml file it seems as if the output style did not place the Accession Number into the Label field when exporting to the .xml file.  There is no Label field in the .xml file at all.  So I guess my problem would be solved if either I could get Endnote to import a plain text file exported from the "Show All" style, or if I could figure out why Endnote is not placing the Accession Number into the Label field when exporting into an .xml file.  Thanks!

Subject: Re: Inserting data into Label field for many records Author: Leanne (Enthusiast) Date: 10-06-2008 04:50 PM If the Accession number would be sufficient for your needs, you can move that number from one field to another, using the "Change and move fields" (under tools in ENX2). A failing of this option has always been that you can't copy fields, but can only MOVE them, leaving the other field empty, otherwise, you might be able to achieve what you asked for originally by a series of copy from one field to in front of another field.    It is really important to note that this operation cannot be undone, so you might want to perform it on a copy.  Also, in subsequent moves (like next week or next year, on new records imported) you want to ensure that the "Don't move empty fields" checked, or it will erase the Accession number from the lable field of already moved records.    I will put a link in the Suggestions forum to this discussion!

Subject: Re: Gripes About the New Contract for Downloads Author: noksagt (Visitor) Date: 10-06-2008 10:02 PM I've thought about this a bit more.  While I see the business concerns of having third paries redistribute EndNote data (for possible use in third party products), I don't see the business concern over limiting what licensed EndNote owners can do with the data (including using this data, themselves, in third-party software).  People might prefer aspects of other software over aspects of EndNote, but might still be willing to purchase EndNote so that they can use the pieces of EndNote they like (including the data) as part of their workflow that may include third-party software.   If they prefer the word processor integration (such as direct integration with OpenOffice.org Writer) of a third party software, but need citation styles that are absent from that product, they are now out of luck.  If the EULA was more permissive, they'd purchase EndNote for the styles & get to use their preferred software.  This seems to be win-win   Instead, the new contract terms seem to assume "if you're not with us, you're against us" & I don't know if this fits with academic research.   I hope that these terms will be reconsidered!

Subject: Re: How to insert Long Footnotes? Author: johneast (Enthusiast) Date: 10-09-2008 03:31 AM The Prefix and Suffix boxes won't work at all with footnote styles. The only "edit citation" function available with footnote styles is the Pages box.   In theory, you write your footnotes (however long) as normal, and just insert the references at the appropriate places.   The problem is that most of the footnote styles supplied with EndNote are formatted to produce a period at the end of the reference. That's fine if the reference comes at the end of a sentence in your footnote, but doesn't work well otherwise.   You can amend the output styles to remove the periods at the end of the references in the footnotes (using the Footnote>Templates section of the style). This seems sensible, but it can cause a few odd problems with repeated citations (ibids, and short titles).   Experienced users of footnote styles may have some better thoughts on this.

I have about 50 libraries, each one more or less in my mind, and I don't need duplicate references, which using IBSS directly would give me. I require Endnote (a bit dependent here) to search IBSS for me. IBSS is exactly what I need, not LIbrary of COngress, Oxford University,etc, and I require that search to be conducted from Endnote, happily having done so for the past many years. I don't know why our new connection file through Ebsco does not function properly. Carol

Subject: Re: delay in inserting citation Author: JasonR (Thomson Reuters) Date: 10-13-2008 06:07 PM The easiest way to speed up EndNote operations related to formatting and bibliographic styles is to edit down the list of output Styles files that EndNote needs to read through. If you regularly only use a few styles, you can move the others to another folder so that EndNote does not need to read through them every time you try to format or launch a window. There is more information related to folder locations in the EndNote PDF manual in Chapter 19.   Jason Rollins, EndNote Product Development

After that you must go to "Tools" > "Link Term Lists" where you can link fields to that new list.For my example you would scroll down to "Language"and there open the pull down menue and choose "Language" (the newly added term list). After that the Field "Language" should work like the "Author" field and suggest all already used languages (if you updated the list).   Hope that was what you wanted.

Subject: Re: Only Helvetica for in-text citation and bibliography!? Author: Leanne (Maven) Date: 10-16-2008 03:13 PM If you edit the style and select the whole of the citation and format the style's citation text to a specific font, you should be able to force the font to 8  (for example) for the whole of the citation texts.   (see attachment, citation.gif).  If they are set as "plain font" the face will come from the underlying paragraph font.      I don't think that Endnote automatically picks up the "bibliography style" from word's style sheet. The bibliography usually is picked up from the last paragraph of the document. You can edit the style's font, if you want it different from the general documents font size or face. (see attachment, biblio.gif). In your case, due to the complex paragraph handling, I would achieve what you want by following the directions in the thread here. http://forums.thomsonscientific.com/ts/board/message?board.id=en-files&message.id=129&query.id=3172#M129.      The Layout tab of the Format Bibliography window only affects the Bibliography Title's font, not the font of the references listed. And to apply it, you need to select the text  (for example, Insert the word Bibliography) select it and then apply the text formating. (see Word-en-layout.gif).   Does that make it any clearer?

Subject: Re: endnote x backward compatible with 8? Author: Leanne (Maven) Date: 10-16-2008 04:36 PM You will have to check with Thomson, but I would check whether their licensing agreement might allow you to have the program installed on a desktop and a laptop, if you were the only user of the program on those two platforms (assuming work will allow you to upgrade your own computer).  The current version is actually X2 (=12) and it is a much better program than 8 which was very buggy.    But the much shorter answer to your question, is that the two libraries should be compatible, although once you use X2 you will never want to go back.     Another consideration is what word processor you are using.  There can be cross compatiblity issues between versions of word and formated citations.  To avoid those, I would keep CWYW off and only format the documents periodically and make sure you transfer/work on   an unformated versionwhen moving the document from one computer to other.

Subject: Re: Word 2007 suddenly stops recognising endnote Author: TaniaP (New User) Date: 10-16-2008 09:53 PM I am using Word 2007 and EndNote X1. For whatever reason Word is no longer recognizing EndNote properly.  It seems to have occurred following Microsoft's latest batch of crappy updates.   Now when I click on "Insert Citation", the window sometimes jumps from Word to EndNote (sometimes it just stays in Word but nothing happens).  If I go back to Word, the "Insert Citation" button is still highlighted and then I eventually get a message that says "Server execution failed."  I'm at a loss.  The Cite While You Write capability is not working at all.  The EndNote tab is still visible in Word, but I am completely unable to use it.   Any ideas???  I'm in the middle of working on my Masters thesis and am currently cursing Microsoft.

Subject: Re: My search window dissapeared :( Author: myoshigi (Visitor) Date: 10-17-2008 03:53 PM Hi, I guess I had the same problem when I was using X1. Everything else was just fine, but Ctrl+F didn't show anything. What happened to me was, somehow the registry data for the window placement of the search window was overwritten, which sent the search window outside of the monitor view (out of sight).   If that is the case for you, you can hit Ctrl+F, blindly type a search term which you expect a few references come up, and hit enter. If your library shows the anticipated search result, your search window is somewhere "outside" of your monitor, but the search function itself is working.   Now, to fix this problem, I had to edit registry data manually through Regedit, and re-write some numbers there. If you are familiar with the Regedit in Windows, I can tell where it is. It is in HKEY_CURRENT_USER and ISI ResearchSoft. Instead of re-writing the registry data, you could uninstall X1, delete the Endnote registry (after saving backup, of course), and re-install X1. It sounds tricky, and yes using Regedit is not for everybody, but that was the only solution for me. If you are afraid using registry editor, the best solution is probably to contact technical service.   Best Regards,

Subject: Re: endnote x backward compatible with 8? Author: myoshigi (Visitor) Date: 10-17-2008 04:11 PM Yes, at least my CWYW in X2 works with my Word 2003 and 2007 as well.   As far as upgrade goes, I agree with leanne and version 8 was the biggest problme I ever had with Endnote. But I understand because the database structure was totally changed from text-based to binary structure. Version 8 was in some sense, experimental version. Version 9 and 10 was stable, but X1 was not, because I saw some memory fragmentation problems and crash. X2 is better than X1, but has some problems in user interface, like automatic entry from online search.   Unless you find version 9 from somewhere, the only option left is to upgrade the one at work to X2, and get the same version personally for your laptop. Sorry, if it wasn't helpful.   Best regards,

Re: How to import accession number (PMID) for a large number of references

Subject: Re: How to import accession number (PMID) for a large number of references Author: myoshigi (Regular) Date: 10-17-2008 05:12 PM I'm afraid the answer is "manually".   Since your reference in your library doesn't have unique identifier that links "back" to Pubmed, there isn't an easy way. I realized this problem in the Pubmed (MEDLINE) import filter around version 8, and I made my custom filter that allows me to import Pubmed ID into my custom filed. Later, I moved the filed to Accession number. But I had to manually re-import several hundreds of reference with the custom filter. Now all of my reference has Pubmed ID, which you know, recent changes in NIH grant proposal mandate you to provide all the reference with Pubmed ID (is that the reason you use pubmed ID as identifier in Word?).   As to the manual re-import work, what I did was to create custom style that exports Author field with Doe J format (and export all authors), Journal title field, and the publication year, and separate them just with a space. Then, from Endnote, using Ctrl+K  which copies the formatted information to memory, I pasted into the search window in Pubmed. Unless the article is single-authored and the author publishes a lot in the same journal, I usually hit a single reference. Then re-imported the reference in Pubmed again to my library. The work screwed up links to my previous manuscript, but that was acceptable. It still took hours to re-import several hundreds, but the custom field helped to streamline, and later it paid off.   If you have several thousands of references without Pubmed ID, I have no solution but using "auto pilot" software that works at the OS level. Hope this comment helps.   Best regards,

Subject: Re: Can a library modify EndNote styles for its users? Author: myoshigi (Regular) Date: 10-17-2008 06:40 PM My understanding: you can't sell your custom-made Endnote filters, but you can help other people to modify filters/styles. Particularly, if the help is through libraries in academic institutions, I don't think it is "redistribution" of Thomson's property. Just save them as different name, and those custom-made filters/styles should be your files, like your database files. At least that's what I think. Thomson may need to clarify about creating custom filters/styles in the term&agreement stuff. A lot of publishers actually post Endnote styles in their web site, with free download. Do they all get written consent from Thomson before they modify some included templates? Best regards,

Subject: Re: How to import accession number (PMID) for a large number of references Author: myoshigi (Regular) Date: 10-17-2008 10:25 PM Oh, there is a certain category of software that automates the job in the OS and across applications. It is sort of macros, like the macro in excel, except it works at OS level (Google Windows XP automation, to find out examples). But I have to write a "script" to automate the task I want. Say for example, type Ctrl+K in Endonote, switch to Explorer, find a reference in Pubmed, import it to Endnote....can be fully automated, if you have time to tweak the macro script. I tried some before, but my conclusion was always "if I spend this much of time to write macro automation script, manually doing each of them would be faster...."   If the number of references that doesn't have pubmed ID is several hundreds, I believe re-importing may not be so bad. Pubmed has "Clipboard" function, in which you can keep the references of interest up to 500 (for 8 hours). From your Endnote library, just use the Ctrl+K export (with the format I mentioned in the previous post), go to Pubmed, Ctrl+V in the search window, and hit Go. Then, save the reference in the Clipboard (by choosing pull down menu of "Send To"). You repeat this "search and save" until you feel enough (say 50 or 100 references) is done. You can export all the references in the Clipboard with MEDLINE format, and import them to Endnote.   It's not really elegant solution, but just in case you are interested in doing it, I attach the format I used.

If I may give my impression (I chatted informally with lawyers I know about this issue, but I am not a lawyer and I do not work at Thomson, so I could be completely wrong): Lawyers wrote the new click-through contract, but lawyers probably do not follow these forums (and probably would not make any sweeping statements here if they did follow them). The technical people at Thomson who do reply on these forums most likely cannot comment on legal matters. Therefore, the best that I am hoping for is that the technical people will take concerns raised on these forums to the people they need to for the poor, overly-restrictive license to be rewritten to everyone's benefit. Until or unless that happens, I would not modify styles or post modified styles (in these forums or on our institutional site) unless the personal need to do so is so overwhelming that we decide to jump through the new hoops of getting permission on a case-by-case basis.

Subject: Re: Strategy to remove duplicates -- please return this "feature" to its former behavior Endnote people! Author: Leanne (Maven) Date: 10-19-2008 09:32 PM I don't like the new duplicate handling either.    But you can always recover the duplicates because they have been classed as a "group".  So I highlight and open a duplicate record, Then go to the all records - and (sigh) scroll to find the highlighted record, or make note of the first author and click (sigh) which unselects the record - but gets me to the right neighborhood, to allow me to find and open the other duplicate record.  Now I decide which one to keep.  Unfortunately, if the one I delete is the older one, the newer one is still in the duplicated "group".  On the otherhand, if the newer record is the one I want to delete, it disappears from the duplicate "group".    go back to duplicate group and deal with another record there. -- or repeat the find duplicate every once in a while to eliminate those you have already dealt with, so deleting the older copy of the pair from the duplicate group.    As a result, I TRY VERY HARD to minimize the chance of getting duplicates in my library now a days.

Author: myoshigi (Regular) Date: 10-20-2008 05:17 AM Let me take my personal comments back because it was based on my assumption, and yes, this is the issue Thomson itself needs to clarify. I know a lot of libraries offer Endnote training courses, and in many cases help users to learn how to modify styles and filters (Endnote contents file).   My assumption came from the fact that 1) Endnote help file indeed tells us how to modify the existing style files, 2) the style suggestion form in their website encourage to contact Endnote forum (I believe this place) if users can not find the exact-match style, and 3) This forum has "Endnote styles, filters, connections" thread, where Rick Meyler (@Thomson) tells "This forum may be used to share customized EndNote content files and pose questions related to the creation and modification of EndNote styles, filters and connection files.  XML, ENZ, ENS, and ENF files may be attached to posts here."  Based on these three things, I interpreted personally, like  "people in the web are allowed to post .ens files for other users, why not library?"    But, once again, sharing through web forum and helping licensed users from library are different legal matters. So waiting Thomson's response is the best answer.   Best regards,

Subject: Re: Manuscript Templates in the new EN X2 for Mac Author: myoshigi (Regular) Date: 10-20-2008 06:54 AM I'm new in the forum (although Endnote user, for long time), looking back previous threads, and found this post was unanswered. Here's why ......I think.   Journals revise their "Instruction for Authors" occasionally, and authors need to check details before putting their manuscript into format. Unless Thomson can keep track every major journal's instruction very very often, the template may not be up-to-date, and authors will probably need to go to publisher's instruction anyway. So, I don't think Endnote's manuscript template feature is useful. Besides, there are only <100 journals in the template folder, and not working with Word 2008/Mac. I guess that's due to the poor macro language (MS's fault, maybe).   It seems working with my Word 2003/Windows anyway >Sorry, it doesn't help you..>turbostar But I don't think it's extremely usuful. It just types "Title" "Authors" "Introduction" etc for you. Not more than that. I hope Thomson stop wasting time and money for this function, and focus on core values like bibliography management and formatting.    But if Endnote can write whole manuscript for me, that'll be great, of course.......(^_^)   Best regards,

Subject: Re: EndNote X1 (Mac OS X Leopard) crashes upon exit (idisk issue) Author: acdawson (New User) Date: 10-20-2008 07:33 PM I had the same problem with X1. I've now upgraded to X2 after acting as a beta tester for the upgrade and the problem still persists. I reported the problem to Thomson througout the testing process, but it was not resolved. Perhaps it will be fixed in the upcoming patch for X2.   This appears to be an issue with the way in which Endnote interacts with the idisk (essentially a webdav disk).

Subject: Re: Gripes About the New Contract for Downloads Author: noksagt (Enthusiast) Date: 10-21-2008 06:32 PM Thanks, Jason.  I was a bit miffed that your initial post was deleted & that my posts that quoted yours were also deleted without comment, but perhaps I should have been more patient.  The revisions in this post (to clarify that we are allowed to share and modify .ens, .enl, .enlx, and .enf files (rather than the vague "EndNote files")) seem to be perfectly reasonable.   Can you please see about having this text added to the "Terms of Use," so that we do not have to rely on mere forum messages (which may be difficult to locate and can be deleted and/or edited by the moderators)?   What are our responsibilities, as customers, to ensure that styles we share are only used by other licensed EndNote users in conjunction with EndNote?  It would seem to me that the files that are currently available publicly rarely (if ever) have click-through agreements & it is non-obvious how a downloader would realize that they would need to be a licensed EndNote user and to use the files only with EndNote.   I would also like to see my other questions addressed--redistribution of the manual & style files to EndNote Trial  users would be useful to me if working with co-authors who are not yet licensed users of EndNote and would probably improve the trial process in general.   Given EndNote's continued lack of support for some word processors (e.g. OO.o) and some platforms (e.g. native Linux), it is quite sad to see that I am not explicitly able to use styles that I have purchased with third-party software for use on those platforms.  I still use EndNote+MS Word on Windows for much of my editing, but I must say that many of my coauthors do not & I do use Linux for many tasks and may consider the switch to an OO.o on Linux, myself.  Ideally, an EndNote license would allow you to use these files as you see fit.  I may even be willing to pay a premium for the explicit ability to do so, even though I have already paid for the software, itself.

Subject: Re: Gripes About the New Contract for Downloads Author: PTravis (Moderator) Date: 10-21-2008 10:41 PM While there is no Linux native version of EndNote, it is possible to run EndNote X2 using the latest version of Wine.  Note that running EndNote on Linux is not supported and there are some compatibility issues, Unicode characters for example will not be displayed.  That said, these are the steps I used to install EndNote X2 on Ubuntu:     Installing Wine: You will need a recent version of Wine to install EndNote X2 on Linux.  Most distributions do not have the latest versions of Wine available as a package.  These steps will make sure that you have one of the latest versions available. 1) Go to "Applications > Accessories > Terminal"   2) Enter the following to download and install Wine: (see http://winehq.org/site/download-deb ) wget -q http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/387EE263.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add - sudo wget http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/sources.list.d/hardy.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/winehq.list sudo apt-get update 3) If you already had a version of Wine installed do the following: sudo apt-get remove wine 4) Enter the following to continue the install: sudo apt-get install wine 5) Configure Wine to use Windows 2000, enter the following to configure Wine: winecfg     6) Verify Wine: wine --version    You should see version wine-1.1.6 or higher 7) This part is optional, but recommended.  There is a bug in Wine that will cause EndNote to crash when you highlight text, this step will resolve the issue.  You can view the bug report here ( http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12075 ).  There is a script by Dan Kegel that will resolve the issue ( http://wiki.winehq.org/winetricks ).  In the terminal window you would need to enter the following: sudo apt-get install cabextract wget http://www.kegel.com/wine/winetricks chmod +x winetricks ./winetricks riched20 riched30     Installing EndNote X2 from the Windows CD: Once Wine has been installed, the installation of EndNote is not that different than installing it on a Windows computer.  You use Wine to run the Setup.exe installer. 1) Insert the CD 2) Go to "Applications > Accessories > Terminal"   3) Change the directory to your CD drive, on my machine that was /media/cdrom0 cd /media/cdrom0 4) Run the installer: wine Setup.exe 5) If you would like an EndNote shortcut/launcher on your desktop, then you can use the following to copy the icon.  Note that you would need to change /media/cdrom0 to your CD drive if it is not cdrom0, you would also change "Program Files" if you are on a non-English system, i.e. "C:\Programme\EndNote X2": cp /media/cdrom0/autorun.ico "`wine winepath -u "C:\Program Files\EndNote X2"`" 6) Test EndNote: wine "C:\Program Files\EndNote X2\EndNote.exe"     7) Click on "Open an existing library" and navigate to "C:\Windows\Profiles\All Users\Documents\EndNote\Examples\Sample_Library.enl"

Subject: Re: Citation: APA 3, 4 or 5 authors Author: John-Arnold (Enthusiast) Date: 10-22-2008 04:44 AM What version of EndNote are you using? APA 5th style is outputting correctly for us under version X1.0.1. Have you entered the authors' names correctly in the EndNote reference? - each author should be on a separate line   As a doublecheck, the correct settings for in-text citations in the APA 5th.ens output style, under Citations > Author Lists are: Abbreviated Author List - First Appearance: * If 6 or more authors, list the first 1 authors and abbreviate with et al. Abbreviated Author List - Subsequent Appearances: * If 3 or more authors, list the first 1 authors and abbreviate with et al.   Another twist with in-text citations is that the APA referencing style itself has the annoying provision of dropping the year in subsequent appearances (though only if no ambiguity arises). EndNote cannot handle that automatically, and I feel it isn't reasonable to expect it to. Year-dropping can only be accommodated by editing affected in-text citations individually to remove the year. This applies to citations involving any number of authors, and the rules for 3-5 are particularly complex. See the Publication Manual, pp. 207-209 for details.   Cheers, John

[the page you want to cite]" in the dialog box you get from "Edit Citation" in Word menu?   I guess you are citing Book or something that doesn't have a particular range of page in the Endnote database entry, but you cite this book very often in the Word text, and each time you want to specify which page you are talking about. Am I understanding correct?   In the "More" dialog box from "Edit Citation" pull-down menu, I just entered, like "p. 45" in the Pages field. It came out the way you want, at least with my Endnote X2-WindowsXP-SP3 and Word 2003.    Cheers,

Subject: Re: Always with "p.", but only once Author: Helveticus (Visitor) Date: 10-22-2008 08:17 PM Yes, to enter "p." in Edit Citation is probably the only solution. It's not ideal because I am changing the order of the text all the time, and if a footnote with a "p." in "Edit Citation" is afterwards moved to the beginning of the text, there is a "p." too much, because the first time a citation appears, I make a full reference with the page range of the whole article (see footnotes 1, 2 and 4 in the example above). Then, there is already automatically a "p." from my template, so with another "p." in "Edit Citation" it would look like "..., p. 12-45, p. 23". I guess you are citing Book or something that doesn't have a particular range of page in the Endnote database entry, but you cite this book very often in the Word text, and each time you want to specify which page you are talking about. Am I understanding correct? No, the problem doesn't exist with books, only with articles. With books, I have the template Author, Title, Edition ed., City Year, p.[link adjacent text]Cited Pages. If I cite to the whole book with a specific page, "p." doesn't appear, and if I do cite to a specific page, "p." appears. Unfortunately, it doesn't work like that with articles.

If all people have the right to edit and one of the opens the library, it will be locked for the others. The manual has that written down also, maybe look into it for more detailes.   If all of the 20-40 people you mentioned should have the right to edit, than you are busted with EndNote. Reference Manager should than be the better choice (i think in the Network-Version).   I think with "suitable for 5 users or 5 concomitant users" is meant to the numbers of people, that can install EndNote (as by the license-rights)?   Personaly have no experience with reference Manager, but from what i have read/heard it is way better for mulit-user-access, but has a more complicated handling.   With "What I have understand about end note is that it was a tool designe for a single user and RefMan was designed for LAN/concomitant use of more users." you have summed it up pretty right, i think.

(emphasis mine) Just for clarification: would these limitations to apply not only to files that were originally distributed by EndNote, but also to files that are created in EndNote from scratch? I can't find anything in my current EULA that would limit my rights for such files. If I write a paper in Word, Microsoft doesn't limit my distribution rights of that file. I was not previously concerned about distributing files created from scratch, as I assumed that I own the copyright on them. After closer reading of this comment, I am actually more troubled by the new terms of use & would appreciate clarification. I guess I'll be consulting our institution's lawyers more formally; we really do want to distribute files created from scratch, but I am worried about increased liability. On this latter note: I also would still like to know what customers who customize and share (and possibly create) files with EndNote need to do to ensure compliance with this policy. Do we assume that non-EndNote users know it? Do we need to embed some sort of license in the files, themselves? Can we have the files on a file server with a license that might not be read?

When you use one reference type i think all the citations should be written in the same way?   If you do not want that, maybe you can edit the bibliography templates.

But maybe this template requires less "manual editing" when you move in-text citation a lot because you have less chance of "not specifying page" for repeated footnote references.   Best regards,

Subject: Re: Can Field Order be Changed in References? Author: ccox85 (New User) Date: 10-25-2008 06:58 AM This might already be a dead issue, but I was just playing around in Endnote, and I thought of a possible work around... What if you created a new reference type (or modified the one you are using primarily) and just retitled all of the fields in the order you wanted, disregarding what the left hand side of that table says.  I accidentally called my "Title" field "Annotation" and Endnote was fine with that, it just called the field title.  If I went in to edit the output, instead of saying title after date, it said annotation.  So... if you changed the names of the fields, and then just made sure that the output was sticking everything where if belonged, it might work.  Worth a shot anyway. I looks to me like all fields are created equal in Endnote.  I am very new to the program though, so I might be grievously mistaken.   If you do try it out, let us all know how it worked for you!   Chris

(the equivalent of rebooting the comptuer, if all is not well).    If this fixes the problem, halleluia.  If not then--   Attach a short version of the formated document (but I use Windows) and someone can look at it and try to figure out what is controlling the output font.  Attaching the current style you are using would also be prudent.

Author: Rick (Moderator) Date: 10-26-2008 06:48 PM I'm very sorry, we were hoping to have an announcement about this issue within the product itself before the weekend.  At any rate, this problem is due to an issue on the server itself, and is something that we expect to be corrected on the server soon, hopefully by the end of the week.  Once the problem is resolved on the server end, all you will need to do is reformat the document, and your duplicate references will show properly.  So, if your paper is not due right now, likely you don't need to do anything at the moment, and the problem will resolve itself.  If you need to get the paper out in the meantime, we've got three workarounds:    First, you can use the full version of EndNote, which will format the document properly.    Second, if you don't have the full version and don't want to get the free demo of EndNote, anybody who does have the full version should be able to format it for you.  They would simply take your formatted document with the duplicate references present and reformat with the full version of EndNote using the same style.  This can be a colleague, or the tech support folks who support EndNote/EndNote Web, who would be happy to do this for you.   Third, you can unformat the citations, save the document as an RTF document, and use EndNote Web's 'Format Paper' function, making sure to select the Format Paper Preferences link to check the 'Merge duplicates in bibliography' option.

Author: Leanne (Maven) Date: 10-29-2008 03:26 PM This is how I use the new interface.     I do my search on the globe.  If I am looking for one or more specific references I already know are not in my library, I select them, right click and send them to my main library.   If I am doing a search for a number of papers on a subject and am not sure if some of them are already in my library, I copy them to a new (temporary) library, using the same select/right click, copy to> command -selecting "new" and the default name (so I don't build up a bunch of random temporary libraries).  Once the temporary ibrary is open, you can also drag and drop to it.  Then I can import this temporary library into my main library, throwing away the duplicates, or putting the duplicates in a duplicate library. This is close to how I did this in the past, anyway.    On the book icon, copied records are in a temporary group called "copied" and imported records are in a temporary group called "imported".  These can be selected and dragged into a Custom group.  They can also be selected easily from here, to perform the Find Full text process.    Yes, I had to modify my technique a bit, but I find this pretty efficient.

Subject: Re: Endnote X1 file attachments error - "This URL(\\) could not be launched" Author: PTravis (Moderator) Date: 10-30-2008 03:33 PM Hello,   This is an issue that can happen with the different Adobe PDF viewing programs.  When you tell EndNote to open a PDF, EndNote tells Windows to open the PDF.  Something about the way the Adobe programs register with Windows how to open the PDF will cause the error.   Currently the only resolution we have besides using a different PDF viewing program, is to create a Windows Batch file to open PDFs using the PDF software of your choice.  While this may seem redundant, it seems to be the only way to have the PDFs open consistently with the Adobe programs.    1) Open My Computer and go to the folder where you PDF viewing software was installed.  The goal here to find the exact path and name of the PDF viewing program.  These are the default installation locations for Acrobat Reader 7 and 8: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 7.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 8.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe   2) Go to "Start > All Programs > Accessories > Notepad".  You would need a line like the following:   start "" "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 7.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe" %1 You would need to replace the "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 7.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe" with the path to the PDF viewing program you want to use.  Note that this must be in quotes, there is an empty set of quotes between start and the path, and that the line ends with %1   3) Go to "File > Save As" and set the "Save as type" to "All files".  Browse to your My Documents folder and save the file the name "PDF_Wrapper.bat"     4) Open a My Computer Window and go to "Tools > Folder Options".  Click on "File Types" and select the "PDF" extension.   5) Click on the "Change" button and then click on "Browse".  Browse to your My Documents folder, select the file "PDF_Wrapper.bat" click Open and then click OK.  Click Close to close the window.     Browse to a PDF on your computer and double click it to verify that you can still open a PDF.  Then open EndNote and try opening a PDF.  Note that your PDF viewing software may inform you that it is not the default viewer, you would not want to have it be the default viewer.  This may also change the icon that was used for your PDF files.

Subject: Re: Legal Cititation Author: myoshigi (Enthusiast) Date: 11-01-2008 11:26 AM This is just a general suggestion just because I don't work with legal documents.   It seems you need at least two reference types that fit your documents. You need to create custom reference type, or modify existing reference types such that all of your information is entered in appropriate fields in the Endnote database. Then, you have to create "output style" that formats your database information.   It sounds a long shot, but in fact, it's not that difficult. Once you get to know how Endnote works, it's a pretty easy process.   Good luck.

Re: Usage of forced separations in Endnote styles
Author: Community Mailer    Posted: Sat, 1 Nov 2008 07:23:52 -0700
Subject: Re: Usage of forced separations in Endnote styles Author: myoshigi (Enthusiast) Date: 11-01-2008 02:23 PM Forced separation is mostly used to link punctation to the following field, that is sometimes empty. Issue number is a typical example, which usually follows after Volume number.   Let's say 100 as Volume, 12 as Issue, the results you want are, 100, 12. (when you have both volume and issue) 100.  (when you don't have issue)  The key requirement is, you want to end both cases with a period.   Then, if you use format like Volume, Issue. It'll come out 100, 12. if you have issue number. That is totally fine. But if issue information is missing, it'll come out 100, In this case you want to remove comma, and replace with period.   To get the result you want, the right format will be VolumeI,-IssueI. By using forced separation "I", comma after Year comes up only when Issue has data. Then, it will always end with period, because the period after the Issue is separated by "I". So, you'll get the results you want above.     If you look at the MLA format for web page, "Type of Medium" "Description" and "URL" is formatted exactly in this way. In the case of "Edition" and "Publisher", the "-" code may be replaced by a regular space. "Link adjacent text" is actually non-breaking space within the Endnote style formatting, but it will not generate the "non-breaking space" symbol in Word. So, it won't matter whether it is non-breaking spece or regular space as long as it is separated by preceding "I" code.   Does it make sense?    Cheers,

Re: Punctuation and spaces at end of repeated citations

Subject: Re: Punctuation and spaces at end of repeated citations Author: joycekwc (New User) Date: 11-02-2008 01:12 AM I have just discovered a workaround for this most irritating of bugs. If you put a comma after the short title in the Endnote field, the space appears after the comma. You can then put any text you wish immediately after the field code so that it appears normally. Instead of Immigration Control , n 289, you get Immigration Control,  n 289 (so you will probably have two spaces before your next bit of text, but this is easier to deal with since you can control the second space with Word).   The easiest way to do this is to add a comma at your short title field in your database using the Change and Move Fields option. Go to the References tab, Change and Move Fields, select Field Short Title, and 'Add text after field', and then put a comma in the box. Uncheck the 'add a space before new text' box. It will then add a comma to the end of all your short titles. However, if you do this, it will add a comma to empty Short Title fields - to reverse this, you can first find all references that have a single comma in the field (as you've just added it) through the 'find' function (Find, select Short Title field, select 'Is', and type a comma) and then Change Text (on the Edit tab), replacing the comma with nothing (leave the second box blank).    I had already put cross-references after all my repeated citations (in the form n and the number), so then to clean up all the punctuation around it I used Word's find and replace function - but it's probably best to do each individually!   Having said all this, it looks more complicated than I thought, but I assure you it only took a few minutes and now I don't have to worry if I really do need to reformat the bibliography again!

Subject: Re: Is it possible to import from Sciencedirect the last author names? Filter? Author: Leanne (Maven) Date: 11-03-2008 11:04 PM I think you are confusing tertiary author with the third author.  A tertiary author would be like the Editor of a book series, which has an editor (secondary author) for one of the series, and a primary author that wrote the actual chapter.    Unless the datebase has the last author listed (perhaps as corresponding author, but that wouldn't be the case for every paper) I don't think Endnote can parse that information easily for you.

Subject: Re: X2.01: the Modes Author: hendo999 (New User) Date: 11-04-2008 05:46 AM Hi,   I've just upgraded to X2.01 (I was pretty happy with X1 until I suddenly lost my search window for some unknown reason).   Anyhow, I am very confused by the online integrated search mode. In principle it's a great idea but the automatic integration is driving me crazy (there were many profanities uttered when I did my first search of pubmed and it automatically dropped 200 odd references into my main library!!!). I can't imagine many users would want references automatically put into their database without checking/refining them first?!?    I've read people's suggestions on using temporary libraries and then copying/moving references into the main library but it seems unnecessarily convoluted to me. Surely, the easiest solution would be to simply have an option to turn off the automatic integration so after I have done a search I can manually drag the references I want into my groups in my main library? This would be the most efficient way of doing an online search and integration into my database as it would only take a single click and drag in a single window.    I think this is pretty much what Kopernikus79 was suggesting and I note that JasonR is saying this can be done in 2.01 using the integrated library & online search but I haven't been able to do it without it automatically dumping all the searches into the library. Can anyone please explain to me what I am missing and/or doing wrong??   My thanks in advance!

Subject: Re: "EndNote X2 EndNote Error" Author: BobUofI (Visitor) Date: 11-04-2008 01:35 PM Solved my problem. I saw the note that programming code containing braces, as C and Java contain, can confuse EndNote. I went through the code examples I have and changed braces to double-brackets as a temporary measure. EndNote now reformatted the footnotes and bibliography.  I could have changed EndNote's symbol for temporary citations to something like double-braces, but I had fewer code examples; changing them was easier.   It is a relief to know that EndNote will handle the many references.

I do that once all the refernece work is done.

Subject: Re: citation order in text wrong Author: myoshigi (Enthusiast) Date: 11-08-2008 09:24 PM It looks okay for in-text citation format. The thing I'm wondering is the separator for multiple in-text citation, because you use comma between. What is your separator? If it is comma, would other separators, like semicolon, change the behavior?

Subject: Re: citation order in text wrong Author: myoshigi (Enthusiast) Date: 11-08-2008 10:22 PM OK, I got what you had.   You probably had these citations in the former places, which determines the "appearance order" already. When the same citations appear in the multi-citations in later sections, Endnote sorts them based on the order of bibliography number determined in the previous places. In that case, "don't sort" is the only option. "Don't sort" option is good for [Author, year] style in-text citation, but not good for [Biobliography Number] format, because in-text citation may appear like [11, 3, 9].   For most of the "Appearance order" bibliography formatting, in-text citation is "bibliography number" based, as I categorized number of styles recently in this thread. http://forums.thomsonscientific.com/ts/board/message?board.id=en-files&thread.id=193

Subject: Re: Importing bibliography with accents, italics, and special characters Author: myoshigi (Enthusiast) Date: 11-09-2008 12:56 PM Endnote has a long history, starting with a capability to handle ASCII text information to format bibliography for popular journal styles. It was good old time. Limited, but simple single-task software. But it didn't have a powerful capacity to manage large databases, or relational structure. Recent upgrades have been geared to this aspect. But, core algorithms for style formatting and search/replace functions have not been reinforced. As you pointed out, markup text can not be imported as they are. For my purposes, I want support for "Regular Expression" like sed or gawk in unix system, which allows us to do more powerful search.   On the other hand, it is convenient to keep instruction manuals of older versions at several places, because the chapters I often need to look at (style formatting, custom style making, etc) are mostly the same (!)

Subject: Re: How to enter a "Journal Article Section"? Author: plafollette (Visitor) Date: 11-09-2008 08:56 PM Is this form a single citation?  I suppose the same question could be asked of a Journal Article (article + serial) or a Book Section (chapter + book), just one level deeper: article part + article + serial).  The use of two dates and two page ranges is to aid the reader in finding the citation.  In systematic biology, scientific names are credited to the author who names and describes the species: Genusus specium AuthorA, 1999.  But when AuthorA publishes her name and description as a section (or footnote!) in another author's work, her name doesn't show up in most bibliographies, the table of contents of the journal, or as a heading in a reprint collection.  Making a bibliographic entry for AuthorA, 1999 helps the reader to find the original description.  The date and paging of the including article gives substance to the physical object being sought.   I can see that creating a new format is the only available solution, though not an attractive one.  Fields presently dedicated to conflicting purposes in other formats would have to be usurped for the purpose.  At least two such formats would be required for separately authored sections: "Journal Article Part" and "Book Section Part."  Other permutations exist.   Ideally, one citation record should be able to reference another, iteratively, by "in" pointer.  A journal article would then include a serial record by reference, a book section its book record, and so on without the endless repitition of information that characterizes a flawed data structure design.

Re: can endnote scan an old 80 page word document and import the existing 130 references already listed ?

Subject: Re: can endnote scan an old 80 page word document and import the existing 130 references already listed ? Author: myoshigi (Enthusiast) Date: 11-10-2008 02:55 PM I recommend to import databases "manually" from Pubmed again. Fortunately, JAMA format use Smith A style for author names, which is a Pubmed-compatible author format. So the author list will be the best to hit single article in Pubmed, although fewer authors may hit more than ten or even more. Just copy & paste authors from your biliography, and try search to see how many you hit. It's probably very easy to fine what you want in the search results. But, some of them may not be listed in Pubmed (like book chapter references), for which you need to type manually, and need to learn what specifically Endnote requires for manual data entry (e.g. Author needs to be typed Smith, A. format).   There are several ways to import Pubmed data to Endnote: downloading text information and use import command (MEDLINE filters), or use online search feature in newer versions (you need to be careful to use X2 without patch).   Re-importing from Pubmed will eliminate your "minor typos" came from manual typing, and make correct Endnote entries. I would say importing 130 references wouldn't be that bad, and good time investment for future projects. It would be bad if you have already 3000 manual entries. Once you have correct database entries, you can re-format your document JAMA, APS, ACS, whatever the styles you want.   In terms of "automatic scan" function you are asking, my answer is No. You could edit your manually typed references by adding tags for each field (author, title, journal, etc) and import them into Endnote by filter, but it would take much longer time to develop such tags and filters if you are new to Endnote.   good luck

Author: Leanne (Maven) Date: 11-10-2008 04:28 PM I once had a colleague who everytime they sent me back my endnoted paper, had unlinked the fields.  and they used endnote!  This happened 3 times despite my entreaties to stop doing it.  The final paper still needed to be tweaked for submission, and they were numbered, so... I converted the numbers to #number in curley brackets, and dragged and dropped the records from one library to the next, in order.  Then with that library I formatted the paper, and it worked.  130 is a lot to attempt to do that with though, if they are in order of appearance (which JAMA is, I see).  If they were by alpha, it would be a lot easier.  If the library is sorted alphabetically, and only the 130 are showing, dragging them into another library would do the trick.    Another trick is to put the number used in that paper, in the label field, and then use the label field as the citation marker (this can be changed by Edit>preferences-temporary citation and ticking the box- use field instead of record number).    All this depends on first having a library of  the references, which as others have suggested, is much easier to get, by retrieving  them  from pubmed, when available.  This is much better than following the instruction to convert a hand-formatted reference list into an importable file, as described in the EN PDF manual, particularly if they have minor errors.

Author: myoshigi (Enthusiast) Date: 11-11-2008 07:42 PM Automation (software development) always faces the questions: Is it worth investing the time? How much would be the time saving effects?   I would say re-importing 130 references from Pubmed would take 2-3 hours. I've done similar things before, where most of the papers had at least 4 authors, and they hit just a single article for each reference when full list of authors (in Smith A format) are entered into search box in Pubmed. Another method is to add one or more keyword after the author list to reduce hits. It was so rare to have exactly the same author lists. Problem was a single author paper, which is usually review papers, and hit sometimes 20-30s. Even so, I could pick up the one I want readily because I know published year and journal as well. When I had a single authored paper, I also added one or two words from the title, and then I hit very few numbers. Alternatively, as Leanne suggested, use keywords that may hit many of your references, and import them all at once.   As compared to this relatively simple repetitive task, trying to learn external tools or re-tagging author/title/journal in bibliography may take longer hours. After all, the conversion may not be really guaranteed due to the erros of hand typing. So, you need to check each reference anyway whether they match with the data in Pubmed or not. As other "experts" say, there are no built-in function in Endnote that automates the article-by-article comparison with Pubmed data (unfortunate for you). Endnote is a tool to format bibliography, but not a tool to "reverse format" the bibliography. But, once again, it is up to you which path you take.   The real problem that lies ahead is the in-text citation edits. I don't know there is a good way to convert "numbered" in-text citation, because search and replace function may not for something like [1-3, 7-10, 13]. Searching reference 2, 8, and 9 will be completely missed in this case. "Author/Year" in-text citation may be easier, but it doesn't seem like you have that format. I don't know cb2bib or Hubmed can automate this process or not, but I doubt it. I think this process (in-text citation edit) is really need to be done manually.   Another question I have is, Are you planning to publish this document with different bibliography format?

Subject: Re: X2--Folder Locations (shared X2 and X1 users) Author: PTravis (Moderator) Date: 11-11-2008 08:29 PM EndNote will only display the styles in the drop down list if the style is checked as a favorite or if it has been used, this is not new to X2.  They would need to click on the Select Another Style option and check all of the styles as favorites.  These are stored in the Windows Registry in the key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\ISI ResearchSoft\EndNote\Favorite Styles   The Folder locations setting in the preferences allows you to change the My Documents Styles to any other folder, so it can be changed to point to the common styles folder.  If the users do not have permission to write to that folder they would not be able to create or modify new styles, much the same as it would be for previous versions.

Probably I just didn`t manage to articulate well. I need this style for my thesis. And it is kind of common (in Germany) I guess. Ok here is an example taken out of: http://bibiserv.techfak.uni-bielefeld.de/gcb04/submission/guidelines.pdf (IN ENGLISH)   References to the bibliography within the text are in the form (1) [Ez99] for a source with one author: E (capital) stands for the first letter of the au-thor?s family name, z for the second letter of the family name, 99 stands for the year of publication, (2) [Ez99a], [Ez99b], if a number of works by the same author exist from the same year, (3) [AB00] or [ABC01] for a source with two or three authors: A, B and C stand for the first letters (in capitals) of the authors in the sequence in which they are listed in the source. (4) in the case of more than three authors, only the first author mentioned in the source is listed, by analogy with (1), e.g. [Az99].   Bibliography [AB00] Abel, K.; Bibel, U: Formatierungsrichtlinien für Tagungsbände. Format-Verlag, Bonn, 2000. [ABC01] Abraham, N.; Bibel, U.; Corleone, P.: Formatting Contributions for LNI. In (Glück, H.I. Hrsg.): Proc. 7th Int.

Subject: Re: Modifying a style gives weird error Author: myoshigi (Enthusiast) Date: 11-13-2008 12:40 PM In the bibliography template definition, puncuations (period comma etc) adjacent to the filed (year, page, title, etc) are dependent on the field entry, which means, if the field doesn't have an entry, the punctuation does not appear in the formatted bibligraphy. If you need to separate the punctuation, you need to have "I" (forced separation) after the field.   It seems you have tweaked this particular style, so I don't have a specific comment where you should put the "I" in your style. I suggest to check the effect of "I" by adding and removing from your bibliography template, then find what fits your demand.   Best regards,

Then reopen word and endnote and make sure your library is open.  Click on the reformat bibliography button.  Before saying OK, go to the third tab, to turn on Cite while you write back on.  Unformatting all the references turns it off.  Now hit return.    Are the references correctly formatted now?

Subject: Re: Same first author, multiple publications in one year Author: dee25 (Visitor) Date: 11-17-2008 12:39 AM I will do as you have suggested as soon as I have access to CWYW. Subsequent to posting my initial request for advice, I had a major issue whilst using Endnote. I kept getting a message repeated over and over again something about being outside the window (can't remember exactly). I tried to close Endnote but I couldn't in fact I couldn't use any other programs (including word), I just kept getting the repeated message. I then restarted my computer and found that there I had lost the toolbar for Endnote. All of my references are still in the word document but I cannot do anything with them. I can use Endnote and my library is intact but I cannot insert references into Word. I have spent hours looking for advice on what to do but so far nothing has worked. So, I am waiting for my uni IT helpesk to get back to me but as soon as they do I will try what you have suggested. In the meantime, if you have any advice about how I can get Endnote back onto my Word toolbar, it would be much appreciated. I have Endnote XI & Word 2007. I have tried updating Endnote, ensuring the CWYW is an add on but so far nothing has worked. Thanks for your help.

I followed the rest of your instructions though I'm not sure where you turn the cite while you write function on (in Endnote?) Anyhow, seems to be working ok but the problem with Endnote recognizing two different works as the same Smith (1979a) & Smith (1979a) has not changed. Any other ideas or have I followed your instructions incorrectly?

Subject: Re: How to review a word document with Endnote references without Endnote installed Author: Leanne (Maven) Date: 11-17-2008 07:44 PM There shouldn't be a problem. I think that if you are working a computer without Endnote, the word document works okay, but I would recommend the following to make sure that the document doesn't get corrupted. First make a copy of the paper.  If all else fails, you can do a compare and merge at the end of the day.   You should use a style that is Author, date, alphabetical (I use Cell).  Then unformat the references, and drag to select just the bibliography (which will be a field, grey, when you are in it) and do a ctrl+shift+f9, to unlink those fields. Now the citations are {Author, year #RecNO} and the references are sorted in an unlinked bibliography, and except for two papers by the same first author, in the same year, it should be a clear which citation is which reference.  - and turn tracked changes on.    When you get the paper back,  you can look for any new references your supervisor added, add those to the library and insert the endnote citation, delete the old bibliography and reformat the bibliography (turning CWYW back on from the third tab of the format bibliography window/menu).

Subject: Re: how to output the several reference in one number: 1 abcd... 2 abc... 3 ab... Author: Leanne (Maven) Date: 11-17-2008 07:55 PM I find it a bit strange that the author instructions don't define this in the instructions to authors, but that is the way that the papers (at least the one I opened in the free available issue) do it... The instructions (from http://www.elsevier.com/wps/find/journaldescription.cws_home/942/authorinstructions)  are:   References and notes: In the text, references should be indicated by superscript Arabic numerals which run consecutively through the paper and appear after any punctuation. Please ensure that all references are cited in the text and vice versa. The reference list should preferably contain only literature references, although other information (e.g., experimental details) can be placed in this section. Preferably, each reference should contain only one literature citation. Authors are expected to check the original source reference for accuracy. Journal titles should be abbreviated according to American Chemical Society guidelines (The ACS Style Guide; Dodd, J. S., Ed.; American Chemical Society: Washington DC, 1997). A list of currently accepted journal abbreviations may be found the journal home page at www.elsevier.com/locate/tet. Formatting for common references are shown below. Scientific articles: 1. Barton, D. H. R.; Yadav-Bhatnagar, N.; Finet, J.-P.; Khamsi, J.Tetrahedron Lett. 1987, 28, 3111. Books: 2. Doe, J. S.; Smith, J.

Re: forced separation
Author: Community Mailer    Posted: Tue, 18 Nov 2008 04:20:31 -0800
Subject: Re: forced separation Author: myoshigi (Enthusiast) Date: 11-18-2008 12:20 PM I'm not sure what do you mean by "that does not work", but I just guess you don't want p. in the output if Pages is empty.   Use "Link Adjacent Text" to link between p. and Pages field. If Pages is empty, p. won't appear in the output, but the comma before p. will appear if you use "regular space" between the comma and p.   If you don't want the comma to appear when Pages is empty, use "Link Adjacent Text" before p. again.   In your first template, you probably had "Link adjacent Text" between Issue and the colon before Issue. If it was regular space, the colon was in the output no matter what. So, check the difference between regular space and "Link adjacent text" which is also called non-breaking space. Regular space appears like a dot, whereas non-breaking space appears like a diamond in the template definition.   Forced separation is used when you don't want some texts or punctuation dissapear depending on the entry of the "preceeding" field. So, for example, next template is just one modification from your second one at the end of the template. Author (Year): Title, in: Journal, Vol. Volume|: Issue|, p. Pages|. In this template, the period after the forced separation appears in the output no matter what the Pages is empty or not.   Does this make sense?

Subject: Re: forced separation Author: Kopernikus79 (Regular) Date: 11-18-2008 12:49 PM Well, I used   Author (Year): Title, in: Journal, Vol. Volume|: Issue|, p. Pages   because sometimes there is no issue in one of my journals so I would like to Endnote know that if there is no issue there should not be one in the bibliography (e.g. if I would not force separation there would be: Darwin, Charles (1961): The Evolution, in: Biology Today, Vol 12: , p. 112-144). That kind of separation works fine, if there is no issue in the file there is no one  So that's why I want to use a second seperator for the pages if there are none in my database.And using   Author (Year): Title, in: Journal, Vol. Volume|: Issue|, p.

Pages   produces: Darwin, Charles (1961): The Evolution, in: Biology Today, Vol. 3:2, p. 112-144   If there would be no issue, the output would be: Darwin, Charles (1961): The Evolution, in: Biology Today, Vol. 3:, p. 112-144   As you can see there is nothing behind the volume number. To work with that I use:   Author (Year): Title, in: Journal, Vol. Volume|: Issue|, p. Pages   which produces: Darwin, Charles (1961): The Evolution, in: Biology Today, Vol. 3, p. 112-144   That's nice and I also want to do the separation if there is no issue and no page number, but using   Author (Year): Title, in: Journal, Vol. Volume|: Issue|, S. Pages|   does not work because the output is: Darwin, Charles (1961): The Evolution, in: Biology Today, Vol. 3, p.   As you can see there is a "p" but I do not want it there.   Hope that helps.

But please check first if there is a regular space before Issue. It is really a tiny dot sometimes very hard to see on the screen.

Finally, copy the whole document (with unformatted references, if possible, following the procedure in 1.), but without the very last paragraph symbol, to a new document, try formatting again."    Try that to start with maybe?

Several of the references had the same or very similar authors which I think confused Endnote. Previously, I had made sure the first author was entered exactly the same for each entry (in the same year). However, I then went through and did the same for the 2nd, 3rd and 4th authors so that there was as much consistency as possible in the entry of (and appearance of)  author names between the references and it was this that worked!!

Actually It would be nice that the Endnote installer automatically gives a warning if it discovers that you haven't updated your Office version.

Subject: Re: How to change the reference type in Online search Author: Leanne (Maven) Date: 11-24-2008 05:29 PM The kind of information in a database is usually quite specific.  If you search a library's database, it is usually only books and thesises. While some libraries can also allow access to journal articles,  you will need to talk your Librarian, to see if this is a service they provide and whether is is possible to access directly from Endnote or how to download them in an Endnote friendly format.   If you want journal articles you need to search a journal database (as Sue said), such as Pubmed, or a similar subject specific database in your area, which may be proprietary.      In Endnote, you can use the Online Search for providers available, via the selecting the libary or database from the online search feature (in X2, tools, online search and select your library catalog (books) or other providers databases (like PubMed provided by NLM for science journal articles). In X1 and earlier, it is under Tools, Connect (I think).      The alternative is described by Sue in her reply.

Author: Leanne (Maven) Date: 11-24-2008 07:58 PM To help you I need to know what you want to accomplish, and what version of Endnote and Word on what platform you are using.  If you want a minilibrary to send with the paper, it already has the "traveling library" imbedded, so if you are collaborating with an Endnote user, you don't need to send them a  library.    But if you have some other good reason to get a library.   If you are using a recent version of endnote, you can make a mini-library by following a few steps.  (Instructions fro X2, other versions may work similarly, but i can't test them).    Save your library to a new name and open the copy and close your full library.   unformat the document, to its curley bracket state. Save word document as rtf and close.   Open endnote, and say format paper, open the rtf document.   A list of the matched references show up in the window, select them all (to do this you need to select the first one, and then scroll down and shift select the last one.  These will now be selected in your library.    Show all (ctrl M) and References, hide selected.  Select all and delete.   ctrl M and the 20 papers from your document should be left.    This library now only contains your referenced papers with their original record numbers.

I am trying to create a smaller folder of Styles so that it (hopefully) does not take so long to open up the Style Manager. Where do the Folder Locations default in that case? I think it has got to the stage where EndNote should only be issued with generic style types and the journal specific ones should just sit on the EndNote website for download when people want to use them. It is getting way too ponderous, both in opening the program and selecting styles. Would be interested if anyone else has a view on this.

Subject: Re: Bibliography format in Word Author: wwdove (Regular) Date: 11-26-2008 04:43 PM If you are exporting the entire bibliography into Word (not using Cite While You Write as you go) then once it is in Word, the bibliography font and size are determined by Word.  You can highlight all of the bibliography and change the format using the Word options.  Heading 1 is 14pt bold I believe, so just highligh the bibliography and change the format to "Normal" then select the font and size you want.   If using Cite While You Write, you must chang the bibliography using the "Format Bibliography" Endnote tool in Word and go to the Layout tab to change the font and size.

My question and the response from support is as follows:   -------------------------------------------------------- MY INQUIRY:   Hello I had been using EndnoteX1 with Word 2008 for Mac but found a critical bug which grayed out the toolbar icons in Word. The only way that this could be resolved was by clicking on a different window and going back to Word. However, this was such a bother that I ended up uninstalling Endnote and so stopped using it.   However, now that Endnote X2 is out I was wondering if the bug was fixed. I did notice in one of Microsoft Office 2008 for Mac recent updates there was some sort of fix included that mentioned Endnote.   ...   SUPPORT RESPONSE   Hello Darren, The Word 2008 12.1.4 update should resolve the issue for both EndNote X1 and EndNote X2.   .... --------------------------------------------------------   So, it looks like the issue has been fixed. It is good to see that Microsoft has been so cooperative to provide the update/fix to solve the issues. I have been in contact with Microsoft Japan previously about bugs that were happening with Word 2008 in Japanese and they were quick to make the update. It is rather ironic that Apple is dragging its feet to make Pages compatible with Endnote and other 3rd party software. So unlike Apple ...   Cheers! :)   Darren

Subject: Re: Critical Bug in CWYW for Word 2008 (Mac) Author: myoshigi (Enthusiast) Date: 11-27-2008 04:59 AM I think Thomson needs to make another board "Endnote problems with Mac", and consider more seriously about the Mac-related problems.   I used to be a Mac user, switched from MS-DOS/Win 3.1, just because I wanted to use Endnote Plus to version 7. With the introduction of 8 and shift to Win-first policy, I also switched myself back to Windows PC. It's kind a shame to see so many complaints from Mac users. Mac users are generally WYGWYS oriented, and spend less time on tweaking things.   I think Thomson is losing lots of Endnote users from Mac OS side, because of poor implementation and lack of serious attention. I recently started to recommend Zotero for Mac users around. Endnote is not the only reference managing software anymore, and it needs edges that outperform others, and stability, of course.

Re: Problems with Journal name abbreviations

Subject: Re: Problems with Journal name abbreviations Author: myoshigi (Enthusiast) Date: 11-27-2008 03:30 PM How journal abbreviation works or not is really dependent on what you have in your database in Endnote.   Say, you imported references from online sources such as Pubmed, using MEDLINE filter, articles like Journal of Biological Chemisty. are imported as "J Biol Chem". Journal title is imported from the data under "SO" tag which is already abbreviated. Pubmed also has "JT" tag data which full name of the journal, but typical MEDLINE filter does not import "JT" tag data. How your journal name entry look like? Abbreviated or full?   When Endnote finds definitions of Abbreviation 1 and 2 in the term list, it works as designed. When Endnote does not find the definitions for the Abbreviation 1 or Abbreviation 2, it just uses the data in journal fied. That means, "Don't replace" option override the "Abbreviation 1" option, if the Abbreviation 1 is not defined in the Term list.   By the way, did you type the full journal title by yourself, or imported through filter? If you typed manually, check spell error or some extra spaces you might have missed. To be able to abbreviate journal tiltes automatically, you need to have full title in the Endnote entry and Term list that exactly defines the abbreviation type for the given full name.   Best regards,

Subject: Re: Problems with Journal name abbreviations Author: fatkhulla (Visitor) Date: 11-27-2008 06:27 PM Dear Leanne and Myoshigi,   Thanks for your time to respond to my question. I checked the points that both of you have raised and everything was OK, except the problem still was there. Eventually, I had to call the customer support in USA to solve this problem. Yes, John East did suggest correctly to replace the term list, but I their website failed to provide instructions how to do so. Anyway, after I solved this problem I made a quick note for myself how to do this and I am attaching it to this thread so whoever encounters the similar difficulty I hope will benefit from this.   Here is the complete procedure in text format:   How to update the Journals Terms List of EndNote version X2 Fatkhulla Tadjimukhamedov, NMSU 2008 The Journals Term List is a necessary component of EndNote program that enables to automatically update the journal names as well as abbreviation features that are predefined in Term List files (usually saved in the directory C:\Program Files\EndNote X2\Terms Lists). In order to successfully update the journal terms list the following steps must be taken, so that the program will recognize the updated list: If you are updating the journal list terms of an already built library, make sure you back up the original file. When building a new library or editing the existing library you may realize that some citations are being abbreviated accordingly, while the others are not after importing references.   The reason for such inconsistency is that the Term List does not have proper Journals Term Lists set up. To fix this:  1. Go to Tools menu > Open Term Lists > Journal Term List. This will open Term Lists message dialog.    2. On the Lists tab select journals and press Delete List? button. This will delete the Journals entry. Press Create List button and type Journals in the text field. Do not forget to check the Journal List under the text field otherwise it will result in error and the new list will not be recognized.    3. Press OK button. Then press Import List button and navigate to C:\Program Files\EndNote X2\Terms Lists directory and select the desired term list. Press Open button to confirm the selection and press OK button in a message dialog prompted afterwards. Press Close button of Term Lists window. Now when you click on the references that did not use the journal title abbreviations previously, they will now show up in abbreviated format.    4. One last important step that must to be done: Go to Edit menu > Preferences and select Term Lists  and uncheck the Update lists when importing or pasting references entry.

Subject: Re: shifted references Author: Leanne (Maven) Date: 11-28-2008 03:12 PM Nope.. I have never heard of any other ways to mixup references.  Are they shifted and not mixed, and are you sure you haven't put in any semi-colons.    Are you tracking changes?  See if the references are tracked/deleted with the correct ones. Tracked changes and Endnote7 don't play nice together.  If they are there, you can search fro tracked changes and reject the messed up references.  If you need to use tracked changes in the future, - work on a document with CWYW off.   I that hasn't worked or if tracked changes are on (and make sure they off to do the following) unformat the references in your "corrupted" document and see if it is fixed.  Sometimes the unformated version of the corrupted document is correct; then you can search for manually inserted semi-colons {like see Figure 1; endnote, year #recno}. If you find one, put the accent ` in front of it and reformat.     If they are still in the wrong place, you have probably a corrupted reference in the original and the only way to restore it, is to get an older version with the correct placesments and do a Compare and merge documents. Turn off tracked changes on both, accept all changes then  unformat both versions, Save as  to a new names, use tools compare and merge which will track all the differences.  You will have to go thru the tracked changes one by one and accept reject the wrong references and reject the deleted right references, accepting the real changes you have made and want to keep.  (I can never remember which document to start with and which to compare.  You might find the opposite, that the correct references need to be accepted and that the changes since the last version you need to "reject" to keep them.)   You can email me privately (click on my username at the left and send me a private message) and maybe I can look at the document.

Subject: Re: Harvard problem Author: myoshigi (Enthusiast) Date: 11-29-2008 03:12 PM Bibliography font format can be controlled in several ways. First, you can directly edit each entry in Endnote, but I suggest to leave them as "plain" font, unless you want to italicize species name, like Drosophila or C. elegans. Second, as you did, font can be changed in output style, but I suggest to leave them as "plain font" again, unless you always want particular font style for all the bibliography you make. Third, you can control font when you format, and see "Layout" tab. You can change the font, but you can't make it bold or italics there. Then, lastly, fonts and italic/bold can be directly edited in Word.   If you check Endnote entry and style are set up as "plain" font, the problem is likely in Word. Most of the Endnote styles do not italicize bibliography, so I don't know how you italicized. It must be one of the above mentioned. I suggest to unformat your document, copy and paste "special" to new document as unformatted text, then format by Endnote again. From there, you'd be able to figure out what's going on.   Best,

The Harvard referencing is working ok now I have started to use a new Word document? I am experiencing other problems now.   I am trying to rush to get one of my assignments finished and I am getting frustrated with my efforts and the program though I suspect it is just me; lack of practice, reading and preparation on the use of Endnote. It seems to be more of a hinderance at the moment, such that I may be better off typing the references in long hand for the time being; but I have much work to do in the future so it will be better for me to get used to the basics it now!   I am at this time stuck on trying to reference this quote properly . The reference went in ok but now I am trying to edit the citation I put in earlier; I am placing my curser within the reference and clicking the 'edit citation' but no matter what I do it does its own thing and puts all the bibliography in the list again? All I want to do is change the citation to (Gravells, 2008:18) for page 18. I will keep trying until I fall asleep?   ?Diversity is about valuing the differences in people, whether that relates to gender, race, age, disability, or any other individual characteristics they may have?.(Gravells, 2008)

Subject: Re: initials showing up in citations Author: John-Arnold (Enthusiast) Date: 12-01-2008 09:31 PM What output style are you using?   If it is APA 5th, then EndNote is doing what it is supposed to, because APA referencing style requires disambiguation of authors with the same surname by adding initials. Although APA is the commonest style employed on our campus, many people don't seem to know about this requirement and mistakenly think EndNote is doing something wrong.   Some other styles disambiguate by adding the title of the item. On the other hand, many science journal styles seem to not bother disambiguating, in which case Leanne's solution is the one to go with.   Cheers, John

I have been working with them to try and resolve the problem. It is still with me I'm afraid.   The advice given was the same information you have just posted. I went to try it out but I could not find the 'office icon' so I could go no further. The addins are working fine on Word 2007; Endnote though never appeared as an addin it had a tag just like 'Addin' and 'Home' etc.   As I said in the last post I have one more procedure to go through concerning access to the registry (well something like that). I've printed out the instructions but have now run out of time to sort it. I just have to get 6 assignments completed by the 15th December; somehow I don't think I will make the date now. I was hoping that EndNote would make doing these assignments much easier but as it has turned out I have lost time in learning the program basics and trying to solve these problems.   I very much appreciated the time and efforts this community have put in on my behalf. It is comforting to know that you are not on your own with these problems. My work is only just starting so there is much much more that I will have to do; so I will be looking in regularly at this very helpfull board.   Thanks once again guys, I may have time to get back and sort in just before the Xmas break.

Subject: Re: rebuild author list so it suggests Author: PattiBiggs (Visitor) Date: 12-08-2008 02:34 PM Dear Gallon_Jug,   I assume that you deleted the original Author term list and then created a new term list called Author when you made your corrections rather than simply editing the existing list.   Deleting the original Author list, broke the field  linkage. You can re-establish it by opening your EndNote library, then going to the Tools menu and selecting the option "Link Term Lists", this will bring up a list of fields by Author it will most probably say <none>, use the drop-down list to change this to Author.   You will need to do this for all the fields that normally feed data into or take data from the Author term list e.g. Editors, Secondary Authors, Tertiary Authors

Subject: Re: Setting pt value for the line spacing in bibliography Author: myoshigi (Enthusiast) Date: 12-09-2008 10:42 PM Yes, sounds like some school class asking students to write following "published" journal style, instead of requirement of manuscript submission. I've seen undergraduate students struggling to make double-column with 7pt fonts, using Endnote and Word. My suggestion was to use Adobe InDesign or DTP software once Word/Endnote work is done, paste (flow) the text into the text box in InDesign. These "publisher" software allow much more precise control over line spacing/font kernel, paragraph formatting, etc. But if you have only Word, the line spacing can be set as exact 9pt in Word, not in Endnote output style. Just highlight grey text (bibliography), and go to paragraph formatting in Word.

Subject: Re: Am J Respir Crit Care Med reference format problem Author: myoshigi (Enthusiast) Date: 12-13-2008 05:03 PM You really have capitalized acronyms [JNK1, FAK, etc] in Endnote entry, right?   When you change output style and try to save, Endnote does strange things (which I really hate). If the style is made by Thomson Reuters, and you try to overwrite, it goes to "Save As" mode, and forces you to add "copy" at the end. You might have saved the one you changed as "copy" style.   You can overwrite the Thomson's output styles without the "copy" at the end, and once you do that, "Save" mode seems to be available. I think they are trying to protect styles they created, but it produced a lot of confusions.   What I mean is; You might have changed the title formatting and "saved as" copy, but your output style selection still might be the one with the Thomson's original.   Hope this solves your problem. Best,

Instead of waiting for your great answer though, I went ahead with a sledge hammer. I wrote a perl script to convert the tagged file in ENW format into an XML file that can be directly imported into EndNote, after toying around with the EndNote exported XML file. That way, I retain the ultimate flexibility on where each tagged field should be routed for a given reference type. But my solution would not work for everyone, and your method is more user friendly. Thanks again.

Use the Change Case preferences to list the words that should not be modified when EndNote changes the case of titles or authors. This can be used for special acronyms, equations, proper nouns, or compound names that require consistent capitalization. For titles, this preference is used only when an output style is set up to apply ?Headline style capitalization? or ?Sentence style capitalization? (rather than ?Leave titles as entered?). For author names, this preference is used when the output style applies a capitalization option other than ?As Is.?To add words to the list: Enter the term in the text box at the top of the dialog, and click Add.

For those who may be asking a similar question, all term list data lives in the .Data folder that should be near your .enl file. There is also an faq on the support pages for migrating that states the safest way to do this is to compress the library first and then open the compressed file on your new computer.

Note: If you have citations in footnotes, you will need to click in the footnotes section and repeat steps 3- 6. You should now be able to format this cleaned up version of the document without running into problems. Please note that you may get the "EndNote Select Matching Reference" dialog box when formatting the bibliography. This may be because you have modified the author name or the year in one of the references. Please click here for information on how to resolve this.

However, X2 works beautifully with Word now.   Leanne, you're right about the strangeness of the citations conversion. The "update citations" worked automatically for a a handful of them, and unformatting and reformatting didn't catch any more. However, I manually updated the rest of them (thank goodness this is a journal article and not a thesis). I am taking your advice and saving as a new document.   Also, thanks for the alt+F9 shortcut! Its way faster than digging through Word's menu options to turn off that view.

Subject: Re: HOW to Properly Alphabetize MLA Works Cited Author: Travellini (Visitor) Date: 12-19-2008 07:34 AM First, thanks so much for your reply!!  I notice now that since the screen was so "slippery" when I was trying to get my original post in order, that my "WHAT I'M GETTING" information is slightly out of order - here's the actual order I'm getting - all quoted items, then everything else:   "Algerian" "Art and Artists" "Benton Ousted by Art Museum." Acheson, Sam. "Dallas Yesterday"  Bullock   My style is a slight modification of MLA because our school had some customized requirements - but when I chose the orginal MLA I get the same - I don't THINK I've ever modified - I usually try to keep the original files without changing.    I depend on the style to insert the quotes.  The sort order is Author + Title, though I've tried all the others - and I've tried changing it in the "Sort Library" segment ... Style attached!!   Thanks!!

Subject: Re: HOW to Properly Alphabetize MLA Works Cited Author: Travellini (Visitor) Date: 12-19-2008 09:13 PM WOW, Leanne - I REALLY thought this was it, and it seems it IS part of it!!  I'll paste the annoying but welcome information from the Help files.  (MLA does not want the use of Anon or Anonymous.) Yet -even when I change the Output Style from "Leave Author Blank" to "Use Title in Place of Author," which is my preference, the problem remains ... ugh.  I even cleared everything from "sort library," and there's is nothing in my "Short Titles"....  I'll keep noodling with it, but so far, my problem remains!  I welcome your thoughts!  Susan   Anonymous Works Anonymous works are defined by EndNote as references where the Author field is blank (not "Anonymous"). The settings in the Anonymous Works panel apply to all sections of a style (Citations, Bibliography, and Footnotes). Leave Author Blank: The author section of the formatted reference is left empty. If the references are to be sorted by author names, the anonymous works would be sorted at the top of the list because they have no author. Use Title in Place of Author: Where the author would have appeared, the title is used instead. If the references are sorted by author, the anonymous references will be sorted as though the title were the author. If you would prefer that EndNote use the contents of the "Short Title" field in place of the full title (where available), click the "Use Short Title" check box. If EndNote encounters a reference that does not have anything entered into the Short Title field, it uses the contents of the regular Title field instead. Use APA Specifications: The American Psychological Association format (used by many journals) requires a special variation of the "Use Title in Place of Author" option. Insert Text: The text that you enter here appears in the author?s place in the formatted reference, and it is used for sorting purposes if the references are to be sorted by author names. Commonly this text would be something like the word "Anonymous" or "Anon."

Subject: Re: HOW to Properly Alphabetize MLA Works Cited Author: Leanne (Maven) Date: 12-21-2008 01:06 AM After extensive testing, we figured out that if you insert using CWYW the citations, the Bibliography is correctly sorted, but if you ctrl K (copy formated) and paste into a document or export using the same style, the sorting is incorrect.    Thus, the only way (unless Tech support has another idea) to get the correctly sorted bibliography, is to insert the references in groups of 50 or less (in Tavelinni's case 50x6 or 7, for 300 references)  and format the font as hidden for the "citations" that you don't really want to appear, or after pasting to unlink the fields and throw away the citations.    We have not tested other styles, just MLA and MLA modified styles.

Re: Problem with formatting and unformatting citations

Subject: Re: Problem with formatting and unformatting citations Author: Peter_T (New User) Date: 12-22-2008 07:10 AM Hi there. In my experience, the problem you report with unformatting and reformatting citations generally results from one of the following causes: 1) A library has had more than one copy of a reference. One of these copies has been cited and subsequently deleted. 2) A reference has been cited from a library which is no longer in use. 3) Key information in the reference has been edited i.e. author name or year of publication. The main point to remember is that once the citations are unformatted, the CWYW function will search for a match for the three reference identifiers - the first author, the year of publication, and the record number e.g. {Amin, 2006 #682} If you know which reference is indicated by an unformatted citation such as this, it's an easy matter to check that the details are correct, and if necessary, to change the record number to match the library entry. I'll be interested to hear if this sorts the problem for you. Peter

Author: DrGeller (New User) Date: 12-28-2008 09:44 AM Hi John, I came across this post because I was having the same problem, trying to retrieve search results from a PubMed connection. Endnote was making the connection to PubMed, but whenever I tried to search, I got a "No matching references found" result, even though the search was generic.    The problem seemed to come outta nowhere, though it has been probably a month or so since I tried connecting last. I'm still not really sure what happened, but I did get it to work. I don't remember changing any system preferences, but...   I use a Mac, Leopard (10.5.6) with the latest software updates, and Endnote X1, with all the latest updates, connection files, etc...    The fix: I removed all proxy settings for both my system and Firefox. I had to LOCK in my changes, because the System's Preferences kept reverting to USING my previously chosen proxy file, for some UNKNOWN reason.   Nevertheless, when I got the OS's network settings cleared (NO proxy, direct connection to the internet), it worked fine. I reset the proxy on my web browser (Firefox) and Endnote continues to work properly.   I hope this helps.  Scott

Make sure that the smaller library is closed (move it and associated files if you have to!).  also make sure there is no "grey" bibliography left.  Delete it or unlink all fields on the unformated version of the manuscript. (Make sure you are working on a copy, incase anything goes wrong).  Then close everything, all word windows and Endnote.  Now open the document, open Endnote, make sure only the new library is open in endnote.  does it work now?

Subject: Re: Funky date issue Author: myoshigi (Enthusiast) Date: 01-01-2009 01:03 AM My "personal" suggestion for your long term is to use single "master" library. You can categorize and manage entries within the master using groups and sometimes using term lists. When I first used Endnote, I started to make many small libraries with different categorical names, but I had difficulty keeping track which one has what, which one is duplicated across libraries, etc etc. Also, when I was writing manuscript, I had to open at least 5 or 6 libraries and the same thing happened as you experienced. Then, I decided to merge all of them together. It took for a while to merge them, but I used custom filed to label each entry with library name. Now, whenever I work on manuscript, the only library I need is this "Master".   Merging itself isn't that big task even you have several hundreds. Just select all, copy, and paste all of them to the one you want merge. Then, you want to remove duplicated entries.   Risk of "Master" is possible corruption of the file. I recently experienced "delayed write" failure in Win OS (hard drive was breaking down), and opening my Master gave me "database error". Recovery commad did not recover any entry. I was in panic....Luckily, I had three mirrored hard drives in several locations, and I recovered my master from one of them. In fact, one of the mirrored HD had the corrupted one, because of my automated file synchronization software. I was really lucky, I found the corruption of my master before the synchro software overwrote the last one.   But once again, this is my personal choice. You could continue to use separate small libraries if you are confident to keep track each of them.   Best regards,

Subject: Re: X2--Folder Locations (shared X2 and X1 users) Author: Leanne (Maven) Date: 01-01-2009 01:13 AM Glad to try and help.  Due to changes imposed by Vista, mostly, I think that Endnote prefers that user files not be located in the Program Files directories.  I don't know if it forces libraries to move however during an upgrade, since I never kept my libraries in the Program folders.  Mine are kept in a Endnote folder on my network drive, and they stayed there following the upgrade.  If Endnote automatically moved them from a Program folder, it might choose a place like My Documents to do so.  If you move them elsewhere, make sure you take the associated folder Libraryname.DATA and its subfolders with it.  Encourage him to put it somewhere he can find them.  It doesn't have to be My Documents.  Safest way to copy them is by the File>Save a copy or to compress them via the File>"compress library" option and reopen the compressed file in the new location.      Once you open a library in its new location, Endnote remembers the last library it opened (which can be adjusted in the Edit>preferences  --Library dropdown) but I always set the preferred library (a different optional dropdown and "add open library").    However, the styles are completely separate from the library.  The library would not be "split" into two places in the same way as user styles and Endnote supplied styles are.

Subject: Re: Funky date issue Author: Leanne (Maven) Date: 01-01-2009 01:25 AM I agree with Myoshigi (I usually do!) in making one master library.  However, I also strongly suggest backing them up occasionally and not just mirroring!    You can import each library into your master, and use the discard duplicates option, or search for duplicates at the end.    If you are working on documents already formated, the travelling librarycould retain the original references.  Which can be a good thing.    But be careful. If the original library is not available, it will keep the original reference in the travelling library. Therefore, if you update the reference and want the new reference information, you should delete the original, and reinsert it.

When I restarted Word, the EndNote tab was nowhere to be seen. Solution: The EndNote Cite While You Write Add-in had been disabled by Word due to its malfunction. Re-enabling the CWYW Add-in takes just a few steps. This only applies to Word 2007 for Windows, not earlier versions. Start by clicking on the ?Office? button in the top left corner of the Word2007 window (The fact that Microsoft elected to make that thing act as a button, with no label of any sort, is a topic for another rant). Under the Office button menu, click on ?Word Options? at the bottom of the menu. That opens up the Word Options window. Click on ?Add-ins?. At the bottom of the list of Add-Ins, under ?Disabled Application Add-Ins?, you can see the Cite While You Write add-in. To re-enable this, go to the Manage: menu. Change the menu from ?COM Add-ins? to ?Disabled Items? Click Go, and you?ll get a new little window. Click on the ?Add-in: cite while you write (endnote cwyw.dll)? and then hit Enable. After doing that, shut down Word 2007 and restart. The EndNote tab should re-appear and work like normal.   Link http://umdendnote.wordpress.com/2008/07/31/how-to-make-endnote-x1-x2-work-with-word-2007/

Also, I just tried installing EndNote on a separate computer that does not have Kaspersky and the same error occured. i am wondering if I am out of installs and how I can get my original software back on my computer. Does that seem like the cause? How many installs do you get with EndNote X1?

Subject: Re: Attaching .PDF files Author: myoshigi (Enthusiast) Date: 01-05-2009 06:15 PM That's right, and the best way to do it.   The way I mentioned above is the "old fashioned" way since version 8 or something when Endnote first had "URL" field. "Attachment" field was added later, but I'm still sticking with the URL field.   The advantage of URL field is (just to defend my "old fashioned-ness"), is that I can make URL links to hundreds of the PDF files in one (streamlined) action.   When I download bunch of Pubmed entries, I also download Pubmed ID numbers into Endnote library. Then, download PDF files to my local HD, with pubmed ID number as file name. Then, I copy the pubmed ID number to the URL field by Change&Move field command in Endnote.   Using the same "Change&Move field" command, I add ".pdf" after the pubmed ID numbers in URL field (without space). Then, I insert URL link text (as I detailed above) before the pubmed ID numbers without text.   This way allows me to make the absolute URL links to the PDF files in a semi-automated way. When I use "Attachment" field, I have to do it one by one. Do I? Also, "Attachment" field doesn't allow me to use ctrl+G (open link) command, which became my figer habit after years.   Bottom line: You can do both (URL link or Attachment with "absolute" link option).   Best regards,

Re: No date, No author, No year - how to cite?

Subject: Re: No date, No author, No year - how to cite? Author: myoshigi (Enthusiast) Date: 01-06-2009 01:39 PM I think the questions 1 and 1a are answered by the publishers or organization which set the rules for citation. Endnote is the software that formats your citation based on these rules. Obviously, when websites disappear, which happens very often, the citation will become invalid. But once again, publishers/organizations determine how meaningful such citation is. Not by the Endnote.   Question 2 seems a little vague. Are you talking about citing journal itself and editors? or articles in the journal which have multiple authors? If the latter is the case, multiple authors are cited by listing all the authors or listing several (3 or 4) and abbreviate the rest by et al. But that's just a general rule, and there are many variations if you look at more in details. You can find hundreds of different formatting styles when you open journals in the library. Endnote helps you to do this kind of different formatting on the fly.    Best regards,

Subject: Re: How to stop Endnote formatting? Author: Leanne (Guru) Date: 01-06-2009 08:15 PM The way to achieve this depends.  Will you eventually want to use Endnote to format the final version?  Or do you want to go thru the pain and misery of trying to get all the new references properly cited and formated to the specifications of the journal (or another journal, if you chose to change that).    Hoping your answer is the former, I recommend unformating the document and working with it in the curley bracketed form.  If you colleague wants to know what the references refer to, I have created a style (last used in X2 for windows -- attached) that lists the references in alpha order, but is preceded by the record number.  Thus the curley bracketed references are easily related to the reference list.  Unformating the references doesn't usually delete the bibliography.  Before sending to the Endnote-challanged colleague, I format the paper with the attached "record number" format.  This format produces an intext citation which mimics Endnote's citation, but to be sure Endnote doesn't get confused, I switch from curley to square brackets. I then always SAVE IT TO A NEW FILE and select the document and unlink the fields (ctrl-shift f9).  (if you have other fields, it may be better to unformat the document and just unlink the fields in the the bibliography). Reformating this document requires changing your preferences to use square rather than curley brackets.  I request that the colleague put in their references in any format they like, in parentheses.  I then use the appropriate reference from my library to insert or retrieve the reference to my library and insert into the paper, and reformat the paper, deleting the temporary library.  Repeat as necessary.    Alternatively, if you plan to go thru the painful route, you can unlink the references

Subject: Re: how to mix two endnote files together ?? Author: Leanne (Guru) Date: 01-07-2009 06:37 PM You should be able to import one Endnote library into the other, without any export steps ensuring that you turn on the remove duplicates option.  However, the newly imported references will not have the same record numbers, but Endnote is usually clever enough to look for a close match, if you should happen to try and format a paper which used the old imported library.  If already formated, it would just keep the reference it has in the travelling library if it doesn't find an exact match in the open library, so that isn't a problem either.  The only problem comes if you want to make a correction to a reference, and then you should delete the old citation from the paper and insert the new one from the library, so the record number matches and it updates the information in the paper.

Subject: Re: Author/Translated Author/Editor Author: johneast (Enthusiast) Date: 01-07-2009 10:44 PM This is a "feature." As explained in the EndNote manual (p.474 of the manual for X2 Windows), "The Editor List settings apply to the generic Secondary Author, Tertiary Author, and Subsidiary Author fields." The same is true of the Editor Names settings.   When the Translated Author field was first added (in version 8), the output styles were not able to format that field at all, in other words, it was not treated as an author field. I queried that with the developers, and they set up the Translated Author field as an author field, but it was set up like all the other non-primary author fields. I don't know if this is a good thing or not. I can't think of an example in the standard style manuals which would require the use of both fields.

I don't think Attachment field can be modified in the way you think, but URL field accepts file path as well.   One additional note about URL is, you can use ctrl+G to open the linked file, but you can't open multiple files at the same time. If you have multiple lines in the URL field, you need to click on them one by one.   In any case, are you going to attach 1000 PDF files one by one? How these files are named? As I explained in the other thread, I save PDF files with my unique ID number (pubmed ID), which is available in Endnote's entry as well. This makes "independent" link between PDF files saved in separate location and each entry in the Endnote. If your PDF files are named, like author, title, theme, etc, you would not be able to automate the link.

I am writing my thesis on a russian topic and have to transcribe to latin letters and translate to german quite a lot of authors and titles, as it is usually done in comparable works. This combined with the type "Book Section" I want authors and editors to appear in a different way:   '...' Endnote field*...* custom field   My own Output Style:   'Author, A. B.' ('Translated Author, A. B.' as original in russian) - 'Title' transcribed ('Translated Titel' as original in russian - *German translation*) in: 'Editor1, A. B., Editor2, A. B' - 'Title' 'Edition', 'Place' 'Year'  'Author' and 'Translated Author' should appear with initials, one or more 'Editors' without but connected via a "/".   If I want to change Editor1, A. B., Editor2, A. B. to: Editor1/Editor2, the changes affect Translated Author as well, which is not very usefull...   Maybe this can be considered to be changed in one of the next updates or versions of EndNote.

Reformatting a manuscript for submission to a different journal seems far more time-consuming than is necessary. If EndNote and Word worked together, maybe I could regenerate the reference list in a different style without copying & pasting every single one. The last manuscript I revised was for a journal that required numbering rather than author-date in-text citations. I had to renumber once. It would be cool if the references could stick to their citation somehow, so I wouldn't need to renumber if I missed one.

Subject: Re: No date, No author, No year - how to cite? Author: myoshigi (Enthusiast) Date: 01-09-2009 04:16 AM Yes, Endnote is basically the software to format your bibliography at the end of documents (manuscript, thesis, lab report, etc) based on the publisher's formatting requirements.   Publishers set the rule to format authors, like "Smith J", "Smith, J." or "J Smith". How many authors to be listed, is also dependent on the journal or publishers.   Endnote has lots of style definitions that format your bibliography. If you are using Word, "format bibliography" command does that job. Cite while you write is the feature with which the formatting is "dynamically" updated while you write your document. I meant "on the fly" because we don't need to worry about the formatting. Either pressing "format bibliography" command or turning on the CWYW feature does that job.   Hope this helps as an etry to Endnote.

Author: dee25 (User) Date: 01-09-2009 11:45 AM Hi,   In response to Q1 - the references that I'm having problems with (there is now a couple) are the same reference type as those where the full stops are intact. I have tried other styles (generic, report etc) and the punctuation still does not work.   In response to your advice for the 2nd issue of '?.' I didn't really follow what you meant by copying the bibliography template to the new ref type in journal style. Interestingly, when I change the style of these i.e.. to generic - I lose the full stop but am not sure how to then input the info so that I can set it up as a journal reference.

Subject: Re: Endnote and Pages format problem Author: sj_shepherd (New User) Date: 01-09-2009 02:16 PM Yes, also happening with myself. I've noticed this when using an altered version of the Vancouver style with endnote so that the output style is formatted a superscript and a pre-done Vancouver Superscript .ens file downloaded from my institution. Every time, the output citation is formatted as subscript instead of superscript - and recognised by Pages 09 as being formatted as subscript. Interestingly, if you set the output style as subscript, it is formatted as a normal baseline. This happens with multiple documents and endnote libraries. Given that I'm writing for medical journals, it makes the whole thing fairly useless.

Subject: Re: EndNote and Pages format problem Author: JasonR (Thomson Reuters) Date: 01-09-2009 06:21 PM We are now able to reproduce the issue in house. Thanks to those of you who sent in samples for us to work with. Based on our testing it looks like super and sub-scripted numbered in-text citations have a slight formatting anomaly in Pages. When these are set to "superscripted" in  EndNote, they are formatted as "subscripted" in Pages and vice versa. An easy enough work-around might be to simply set-up the Output Style in EndNote so that "sub" is applied when you want "super" in Pages. This is very easy to do in Output Style Editor window under "Citation Templates". More investigation is needed so we are not confident that the glitch is as consistent or straight forward as this but will post more information when we have it. We have allerted the Apple Pages team and we are working with them to confirm exactly where the issue might be and what other options are available. Jason Rollins, the EndNote team

The steps are:   - Highlight the Citation Template text and choose "Remove Font Formatting" - save this change. - Again,  Highlight the Citation Template text and choose either Super or Subscript - save changes - quit and restart both EndNote and Pages.   These steps have been working for everyone testing this internally.   The one subtlety - likely noticed by other here - is that selecting either Super or Subscript does not apply a single setting or Font style [as it does in MS Word]. Instead these options essentially act as a baseline shift. This is why the "Remove Font Formatting" step is necessary first.   I hope this is clear and helps for now.

When I uninstall and reinstall Word, the EndNote CWYW add-ins are still installed, and when I try to delete or disable them, Word freezes and I have to use task manager to quit it.

It does. HOWEVER, if you think it works like Word, you will be disappointed. It seems you have to insert a ref from pages. Is this true Thompson? It does not recognise the endnote lib from a word doc.    It is not clear to me how you format the "Bibliography", as it is called, when it appears in pages. Again, in word this is easy.  Indeed the format seems like a default one, which no scholarly journal would ever use. Certainly not the format I selected for my test: J. Am. Chem. Soc. journal formats in endnote are OK, but we must all know that these are never ever perfect. For example, the default formats for Nature and Chemical Reviews not water tight, so require fiddling manually.   I hope this is just the start of a very exciting move by Thompson and Apple?

Author: rumbach (New User) Date: 01-13-2009 08:59 PM Leanne,   Thanks for your detailed reply!  I must admit, I am a bit of an Endnote challenged individual, so please bear with me!    My boss and a colleague are writing this paper together, and the colleague's work is complete.  His references are all in Endnote, so the document and bibliography are linked to Endnote.  My boss would like me to completely detach the document from Endnote while keeping what is in the document intact, so that she can add some final references and make changes as she feels necessary - she doesn't use Endnote and wants to make sure everything is in straight Word at the end of the process.   So if you have a Word document in front of you, is there a relatively easy command to "unlink" the bibliography and references, so that she can edit both from here on out?   One other important bit of information - she does not have her colleague's Endnote library, so she can't export the list directly!  The article and associated bibliography are the only sources for the reference information...   Hope that all makes sense...   Thanks again for any help you might be able to provide...

Word 2003: From the Tools menu, go to the EndNote X2 submenu and choose Export Traveling Library. Word 2007: On the EndNote tab, in the Tools group, select Export to EndNote and then Export Traveling Library. On the Export Traveling Library dialog, select either: An existing EndNote library: Select a library from the drop-down list of available libraries, or click Browse to locate a library. A new EndNote library: You will be prompted to name and Save the new library.   Note: We recommend that you export to a new EndNote library, so you can review the records before adding them to an existing library.   There is an alternate way to copy references from your Word document to an EndNote library. Open both your Word document and the EndNote library. Then, in EndNote, go to the Tools menu, then the Cite While You Write submenu, and choose Import Traveling Library.   Note: When you use the Export/Import Traveling Library commands, the exported references are renumbered and do not retain their original reference numbers. To unlink everything without losing any of the text.  Using Words unlink fields.  Endnote has a button on the toolbar, but I don't ever bother with it.    Select all (ctrlA) then unlink the fields-- (ctrl-shift f9).  You should have a clean document for your boss to work on.

There could be some confusion with knowing where to add/remove both text and citation - with his method changes would be needed in two places.  I think we will just settle on typing the author name and then use exclude author so that the citation looks like Author (year).   Jen

Anyway, if need to, I can post them again, or Thomson could have them in their style FAQ. They are all originally made by Thomson; I just renamed them.   Thomson claims they have created >3600 styles, which actually makes Endnote to load slow by default, but what we need is probably 50 or 60 base templates. Most of the users in academia will find just fine if they learn how to modify a little. Of course, some still prefer "completely made".   By the way, Thomson's "Style Finder" also finds styles based on the order of the fields. That means Thomson might have put their 3600 styles into categories using similar way?

Subject: Re: how to set up a personal style for repeated citations? Author: johneast (Enthusiast) Date: 01-18-2009 11:06 PM I can't suggest any perfect solution. When editing your output style, you could go to the Footnotes>Repeated Citations section and check the option "Use the short form of the reference" (I think you have already done that), and also check "Include the title/short title."   In your EndNote library, you could add the year of publication to the Short Title field. Now your repeat citations will contain the author and the year (and the cited pages, if you use the Pages box in the Edit Citations function). The problem is that the year will have whatever formatting is normally applied to the Title field, e.g. italics or inverted commas. So this is not a good solution, and will require a lot of editing at the end, after you remove the EndNote field codes.

I have never heard in all my years, of this kind of error with endnote.  You do have a backup, don't you? (Ducking head)  If the library is really lost, then...   Endnote and Word versions? (and operating system?)   Is the thesis formatted?  What version of endnote? If the thesis is Endnote formatted, you should be able to recover the travelling library, if you are using version 8 or better. Recover the travelling library (usually an option under tools, but I can't remember where it is in all versions) to  a new library file. Then, you can either just continue to write using the new library, or (what I would do) is make a COPY of the manuscript and unformat the paper and save it.  Now open it with the new library and reformat.  Endnote will not be able to match the Record numbers, but will bring up the best Author/year matches, and you choose the correct one.  Nine times out of ten, it will be the one with the first author match.    But I would try to figure out why it happened so reconstruct what you did and ask Tech support if they can figure out what happened (and let us know so we don't do it)?

I will delete the others but what is the best way of making sure that endnote is 'talking' to the correct and current library? i exported all my references from word 2007 citations a few weeks ago and i wonder if it hasnt quite updated. sometimes when i click update citations and bibliography it still asks do i want to update 'word 2007 citations' even though i converted them all 2 weeks ago. additionally a couple of the citations are being highlighted in yellow which i guess could have something to do with this. would recovering the library help? thanks   Julian

Subject: Re: Is this possible? Author: johneast (Enthusiast) Date: 01-22-2009 11:50 PM The largest database of books is Worldcat from OCLC. But it certainly doesn't contain everything. There is an EndNote connection file for Worldcat, but you would only be able to use that if your institution has a subscription.   Alternatively you can search Worldcat via the web. Use the Author box and input the author's name in reverse order and in inverted commas: "simons david". Also, go down to the Format box and select Book. When you retrieve records, just click on "Export to EndNote" to export them directly to EndNote. This works well.   The only other large-scale book database that I know is the Karlsruhe Virtual Catalogue. This is a great resource. It will search many library catalogues and give you links back to those catalogues. Some of the catalogues might provide direct export to EndNote, but you will probably end up copying and pasting most of the references.

This meant that EndNote started formatting incorrect citations at many places in the text. I had to go through and check that all the citations were correct by hand.

Although I fear, they cannot develop as fast as I try to make use of EndNote ;)   Thanks anyway.   They probably determine new features based on the user base and the level of urgency, so the new features tend to go to the bottom of the list, if the requests are coming from only just a few numbers of people. Even one person finds one function really critical, if the number of people with the same problem are not large, developers do not take that request as a top priority. That certainly make sense to manage company and software, but often frustrating from users' side.   As I read this forum, their top priority seems making EN "really" compatible with Windows Vista 64bit, Word 2007, and Mac OS/Mac Word. I don't think these fixes are "upgrade", and they should be "updates" because they claim already EN is "compatible" at the time of release. But, that doesn't necessarily mean "in all cases", as evidenced in this forum. Very likely, they will charge for X3 upgrade, and say "now more stable with Win Vista, Word 2007/2008, Mac !".   Best regards,

You can still use them.   To access those commands, click on the Office button in the top left-hand corner of the Word 2007 screen. Then click on the "Word Options" button.   When the Word Options are displayed, select the Customize option. This will allow you to select specific commands to add to your Quick Access Toolbar.   Use the "Choose Commands From" menu to select "References Tab." Now you will be able to see all the commands that normally appear on that tab, including the bibliography commands.   Choose the commands that you need and put them on the Quick Access Toolbar.

Subject: Re: Journal - using with and without abbreviation Author: Leanne (Guru) Date: 01-28-2009 09:11 PM No I would use the abbreviation tool - it just can't cope with two different choices for the different places.  You will still be using the abbreviation terms to produce the correct output to the bibliography (or the footnotes), but it would be two steps.    It would still be used in the primary bibliography in the second scenario, but couldn't be silmutaneously used in a different way for the footnotes, hence the manual cludge.  Alt Journal field would be a good place to put the abbrev title.  Since most databases have an abbreviated journal title, you might consider trying to import it directly into both fields, if that is possible?  (I keep asking the developers for a "copy" function, to copy one field to another, rather than only having a "move" option. in fact I think I might go put that in the suggestions part of the forum again.)  Then you could set up the footnotes with the alt Journal field and the bibliography with the preferred journal term list option.

Subject: Re: Citing archives in EndNote X Author: johneast (Enthusiast) Date: 01-28-2009 10:50 PM You would probably use the reference type "Manuscript". If you create a new reference and choose that reference type, you will see the fields that are available to describe your reference.   The next problem is to find an output style which will format that information. The standard output style for history is probably Chicago 15A, but it isn't configured to format references which use the Manuscript reference type. It will only format them using a Generic format.   The Turabian Bibliography output style is configured to format the Manuscript reference type. It formats data in the following fields of that reference type for the Bibliography: Author, Title, Collection Title, Manuscript Number, Library/Archive, City   For the Footnotes, it formats these fields: Author, Title, Year, Type of Work, Collection Title, City   I don't know why it formats different fields in each case, but I'm not familiar with the Turabian manual.   You will probably need to do some editing of whichever output style you select. See the chapter of the EndNote manual on Bibliographic Styles.

Subject: Re: Merge reference lists into a separate Word-document? Author: myoshigi (Enthusiast) Date: 01-30-2009 10:58 AM I don't think Endnote is really equipped well to write long books with lots of footnotes, or thesis with lots of references for each chapter. It has been developed essentially to format manuscript for journal articles. I think requests from book/thesis writers are increasing, and Thomson needs to consider adding some features to expand (or keep) user base.   I think, for (edited) book writing, formatting correctly footnotes and references is publishing editor's job, not individual chapter writer's job. But for thesis writing, graduate students don't have "publishing editors", so they are facing with challenges all the time.   "Chapter formatting" is probably a very critical feature for book/thesis writing. For example, partially select contents of the document, and add bibliography at the end of the selection, not the end of the entire document. I vaguely remember we had some discussion in the feature request thread, but I'll look into the past discussions and pull them out to the top.   Best regards,   Best,

Subject: Re: Some export related questions from an EndNote newbie Author: myoshigi (Enthusiast) Date: 01-31-2009 08:47 PM I vaguely remember the days when I switched between Endnote and Filemaker Pro in Mac OS 8. So, excuse me if I'm wrong.   Your Filemake use the first line to map the field (and ignore the line itself), and import the second line CSV as data, right? Then, you can simply have the filed definition, like "title","journal","volume",...., then insert carriage return(in fact end of paragraph) in the style definition. The second line should be the same format as you made.   Empty page field: By default, Endnote does not format the entry is empty, which means your CSV will have inconsistent field numbers. The work around might be, search entry that doesn't have page number in your Endnote library (Search Page IS null), then use Change Filed command to enter some special characters, like # or *. Delete them later in Endnote and Filemaker. (Not an elegant way)   As to the page range output, use the full range format first, e.g. 123-125 as your output format. Then you need to edit the CSV using text editor or Word to replace - (dash) with "," Now, the problem is the search and replace - (dash) would replace some other dash contained in the title, like "cell-cell junction". Then, you have to use smart command line editors like sed or gawk (I'm assuming you're familiar with these tools, because I heard "MS-DOS" for the first time in this forum!)   Besides, I would use tab-delimited text instead of CSV because article titles sometime have commas. Hope this helps.

Re: Some export related questions from an EndNote newbie
Author: Community Mailer    Posted: Sat, 31 Jan 2009 14:11:01 -0800
Subject: Re: Some export related questions from an EndNote newbie Author: tba (New User) Date: 01-31-2009 10:10 PM Hi Myoshigi,   Thank you for your quick reply! You are correct that FileMaker uses the first line to map the fields from the textfile to the database fields. That's why I need fieldnames on the first lines of my textfile that is exported by EndNote.   Fieldnames on first line / column headers: I already tried your suggestion to type the text on the first line of the Output Style template. The text is printed to the output textfile, but not only on the first line, but on every second line! For every reference EndNote prints two lines: the first with the "fixed" fieldnames / text and a second line with the values / data. I think you are right that EndNote doesn't have an export function to print fieldnames only on the first line of the output textfile. That's a pity... I do need some "header" function in which I can place the "fixed" text (the fieldnames / headers). In the template I only define the fields which contain the data / values.   Empty fields: I tried the "Change Fields" option in EndNote. It does what I want, but it is a manual action. I want to automate this... When I doubleclick a reference in EndNote, it shows me the details of that reference. The "Pages" field is displayed, but of course without a value. I think, that when EndNote shows me the "standard" field "Pages" on the detail screen, it should be possible to force EndNote to export this field, regardless the value of the field. As you mentioned, my CSV file has inconsitent fields due to this. I filter them manually, but as said, I want to automate this process and not filtering / editing the files by hand.   Splitting pages field: I'm very familiair with editors like UltraEdit and Notepad++, so I could make a macro to do this. That's no problem. The problem is, however, that I don't want to use additional tools, I simply want to import something in EndNote, selecting the Output Style and export it again in a way FileMaker can import it directly. The more additional programs I need to use to edit EndNote's output file, the more error-prone the process will be. I'm searching for the most easy way to handle this so my girlfriend can do it herserlf :)       >Besides, I would use tab-delimited text instead of CSV because article titles sometime have commas. Well, EndNote uses tab-delimited CSV by default and FileMaker can import tab-delimited files by default. BUT, when exporting to tab-delimited format in EndNote, EndNote will always use the characters between multiple authors defined in your Output Style template. So, the different fields will be separated by a tab, but the authors are in one field. In FileMaker I need to import each author in a different field, so I need to separate the authors. So, by default, the CSV file contains two different separators: a tab and a comma (or another character that is defined in the template). That's not very practical, and it's the reason why I use "," between every field. If there's a comma within a field's value, it isn't interpret as a separator by FileMaker because of the " signs.   P.S. Do you also have problems with the WYSIWYG editor while typing a reply in this forum? The scrollbar scrolls up and down automatically everytime...it's quite irritating!

Endnote did not start as a database software. Relational database structure was implemented only recently. It is essentially text formatting tool.

I use pubmed ID as file name for my PDFs, because it is a unique number allocated for each article, and downloadable into Endnote database by medline filters. Hassle about this method; I need to rename the PDFs for every single one, and I can't use "search full text" function. However, I can automate to create URL links with my method.   As to keeping "neet" hard copy, I simply stopped printing hard copies. I keep only xerox copies of older articles (with alphabetical order), but they are also all scanned in to PDFs, such that I don't need to use any printed materials on the work. I read all the research article through Endnote.

So in formatted bibliographies, there is nothing where a journal name should go --this usually means showing the title and going straight to the volume.   To further clarify, let X = any journal style in Style Manager.  If we try to edit the template like this:   Edit > OutputStyles > EditX >Bibliography/Templates   we get a list of output templates.  In any ref type that should have "journal" in it, it instead says "*INVALID FIELD*".  If I click "Insert Field" then in the list of fields it does notinclude "journal."   "Journal" has disappeared from the program, at least on my laptop (this problem does not occur on my desktop).

Subject: Re: Some export related questions from an EndNote newbie Author: tba (Visitor) Date: 02-01-2009 05:21 PM Well, in my opinion I'm not requesting any (relational) database feature. As said in my introduction I'm completely new to EndNote and to be honest, not very aware of which purposes this program is used for. In fact, I'm only using it because it can "tranform" the MEDLINE textfiles into .CSV files that can be processed by another application, in this case the FileMaker database application.   If EndNote is, as you say, a text formatting tool which officially offers export functions to create files that can be processed by other applications, I would expect some (export specific) options like printing headers and printing empty fields so that the created CSV file is correctly interpret by other import tools.   The CSV file EndNote produces now can not be used by other import tools because of the incorrect column lay-out due to the missing (empty) fields.   I'm afraid my girlfriend has to use Excel to manually edit the file before importing it in FileMaker.

Subject: Re: Some export related questions from an EndNote newbie Author: Leanne (Guru) Date: 02-01-2009 10:41 PM These are things I would try, but I have never tried importing the EN library into FileMaker, so they are just guesses.   You asked: How can I configure field labels? I do need field/column labels in the first line of my CSV formatted textfile, because FileMaker uses these labels to "map" them to the correct fields in the database table. Now I use the MS-DOS command copy to merge the EndNote's export file with another textfile that contains the field labels. Is there an easy way to let EndNote print the labels to (only) the first line?"   Couldn't you creat a record in the library that has the header names in the fields and make sure it is sorted first. Create a custom field to sort on and all your files would be blank, but your "header record" would have an a or a 1 in it, and you probably want to reverse sort, so it is first, then if you need the rest sorted, you will pick the second parameter as that parameter, but if you are just going to import them, then you don't need the rest sorted anyway.   You also asked: In some cases, the Pages field is empty. Empty fields aren't exported in my textfile. How do I force EndNote to export fields, even if they are empty? In case of an empty field, the textfile should contain: "<value>","","<value>" (the field in the middle is empty).   If you add spaces around the field name export style, you should maintain the empty values and tabs.  At least it worked with the tab delimited style I  tested by cutting and pasting the template into word and replacing the ^t with _^t_ (where the _ is a normal space) and pasting it back in.  It seemed to keep the tab space-space tab in the output.    You asked:     By default, the Pages field is displayed as follows: 371-5 In the textfile, created by EndNotes export function, I want these values splitted into two separate fields, like: "371";"5" The "-" sign can be left out.   Can you search and replace the pages field in (a copy?) of your library and replace it with a comma space?  If so, then it should split the two outputs.  You would also have to put that into the field header in the dummy record too.

Keep in mind, however, that when you do this, you completely replace the recipient?s existing reference type table.First, export the reference type table you wish to share: From the donor?s user account, start EndNote. From the Edit  menu, choose Preferences. Click the Reference Types option in the list of preferences. Under Reference Type Table, click Export to display a file dialog. Name the file, select a folder where you will be able to find it later, and click Save. EndNote will append an .xml suffix to the file name.

Subject: Re: Endnote X2 messes up tool bar in Word 2008 (Mac). Help??? Author: JasonR (Thomson Reuters) Date: 02-02-2009 03:54 PM This is very likely a Word issue [possibly a bug?] that is triggering an odd interaction with the EndNote CWYW toolbar. We are trying to add something in EndNote X3 that works around this issue. This problem could occur in several ways but is most likely a nonfunctional custom button that was added to the Word toolbar. The button is defined in the Word dotm file and may only be visible when customizing the toolbar.   To verify this and make edits, in Word - View:Customize Toolbars and Menus - there are options here for adding and removing toolbar and menu items.   Jason Rollins, the EndNote team

Subject: Re: Consecutive footnotes Author: johneast (Enthusiast) Date: 02-02-2009 11:48 PM The "floating bracket" is one of the perennial problems with EndNote footnote styles.   First, check which type of reference causes this problem. Is it only Journal Articles?   In EndNote, click on Edit>Output Styles>Edit "Oxford....   When the style edit window opens, go to the Footnotes heading in the left-hand frame and select the "Templates" section.   Now in the right-hand frame, find the Journal Article template.   Wherever you see a bracket, make sure there is a vertical bar | on either side of the bracket. You can insert the vertical bar from your keyboard or by using the "Insert Field" button and selecting "Forced Separation."   Close the edit window and save the changes when prompted.   When you return to Word and reformat the references, the floating bracket should have disappeared. But be warned, if you add page numbers to your Ibid. using the Edit Citations function, you will get an extra space before the page number. I think you will also find some other spacing problems.   Using EndNote with footnote styles is always a challenge.

Subject: Re: Convert Endnote to Word-Endnotes Author: Leanne (Guru) Date: 02-07-2009 09:54 PM I don't know how Word 2007 works, but when I collaborate with someone who doesn't use Endnote, I just provide the document unformated (in the curley bracketed form) with a Bibliography sorted by Record Number (I have a style that does that too), and unlink the fields.  Then I get it back from the collaborator to make the final version.  If they insert the word-endnotes, and Jason is correct, you can import their new references into your library.  You would then need to insert the endnote version, I guess, although there might be a way to convert them into Endnote readable format, thru judicious use of replace commands, if there were a lot?  getting them into {Author, Year} would be enough for endnote to bring up the likely suspects, to make it pretty painless.

Subject: Re: Inserting hidden references in Word as to include them in the Bibliography Author: johneast (Enthusiast) Date: 02-09-2009 02:59 AM One solution that I sometimes recommend is as follows:   * Insert a page break at the end of your document to create a new blank page.   * On this page, insert any references that you have not directly cited. If you are using a footnote style, and you insert the references straight into a blank page, the references will not appear, because they have not been inserted in footnotes.   * The references should appear in the bibliography at the end of the document.   This procedure seems to work. Bear in mind that it is only applicable to footnote styles. And you have to remember that the blank page is not really blank.

Re: Problems with Endnote 7 / Office 2003 on Windows Vista
Author: Community Mailer    Posted: Tue, 10 Feb 2009 06:46:12 -0800
Subject: Re: Problems with Endnote 7 / Office 2003 on Windows Vista Author: MikeV (Moderator) Date: 02-10-2009 02:46 PM As usual, Leanne is correct.  EndNote 7 predates Word 2003, which predates Windows Vista by a couple of years. They were not written to be compatible with each other. You can usually get it running with basic functionality intact, but you will run into plenty of strange behaviours including but not limited to the ones you describe.   Here are some basic troubleshooting steps that I like to use when dealing with Vista and any version of EndNote before X2 and you get idiosyncratic issues like the ones that you describe (and honestly, it doesn't hurt to try them with X2 either):   - Make sure you're logged in as an administrator. - Disable UAC, as per http://www.petri.co.il/disable_uac_in_windows_vista.htm. - Uninstall and then reinstall EndNote, update it to the latest version of that particular release (update 8 to 8.0.2, X1 to X1.0.1 and so on). - Reset your EN preferences as per http://endnote.com/support/faqs/Install/faq27.asp. - Uninstall and reinstall the CWYW tools.  With versions prior to X1, that means deleting the CWYW files in your Word startup folder and then re-copying them from the website or your EndNote installation directory, as described in http://endnote.com/support/faqs/CWYW/faq1.asp.  Note that if you've upgraded from earlier versions of Word to 2003 or 2007, the files may actually be hiding out in places other than the default startup folder. - Run EndNote as Administrator (right click and Run as Administrator) if Vista will let you, and then open a library. - Run Word as Administrator, open a blank document, and insert a reference.   At this point you can re-enable UAC if you really feel like it.

Subject: Re: Double click does not open library Author: MikeV (Moderator) Date: 02-10-2009 03:25 PM Hm.  X2 does take a long time the first time that you open the style manager -- as it was explained to me, it tends to front-load a lot of the data which makes for longer load times initially, but faster performance later on -- but a long wait when inserting a reference is typically indicative of some kind of trouble accessing / editing the system registry.  Typically we see that happen once right after resetting preferences or (re)installing the program, and then it doesn't happen again.  Were you running Vista, I'd blame UAC, but in XP it's usually due to some kind of third-party registry protector or antivirus or antispyware program.

Subject: Re: Problems with Endnote 7 / Office 2003 on Windows Vista Author: Leanne (Guru) Date: 02-10-2009 08:49 PM I recommend always uninstalling previous versions of endnote before a new installation.  This will not delete your libraries and often also leaves preferences (although I doubt it should from EN7 to X2).  Check to make sure Word doesn't have any remnant toolbars.  We often used to have IT check our registry too, for remnants and extract those.  Earlier versions kept many preferences in the registry.  Then, try to reinstall, making sure that both word and outlook are not open.  (X2 checks for this, but older installs of earlier versions did not always).    Because I am paranoid, I always back up my library to another directory,  "just in case".  - but haven't had to resort to it.

The problem arose after installing EndNote X2 and now persists even if EndNote X2 is not open. No crash. No use of Applescript. Most of the times console says nothing when Word 2004 freezes. No problem on Intel Mac. Problem only on PowerPC Mac.   Amazingly, when the issue shows and Word 2004 freezes, if I move the mouse pointer to a corner to activate Expose AND I HAVE OTHER WORD DOCUMENT OPEN (even a blank one) and click on such second document window, then the freezing goes away and I can return to the original Word document and keep on working. Until the next time it strikes. Amazing!

Subject: Re: How do can I print my research notes? Author: sguls2 (New User) Date: 02-12-2009 04:24 PM For anyone that is interested here is the answer I found on how you can output your research notes from EndNote.   1. Go to EndNote X2 and choose File / Export 2. Choose a destination folder or location that is easy for you to get to 3. Name the file whatever you wish 4. Select Rich Text Format (RFT) from the Save as Type section 5. Change the style to what ever output stype you wish to use (for this particular problem. Choose Show all fields) 6. Uncheck the export selected references to export the whole library OR leave checked if you want only selected references with their research notes. 7. Click Save   Now you will have a .rtf document you can open, edit and print.  It will contain all the information about your paper and your research notes as well.   Best wishes

I've seen this behavior on a few Vista machines.  I don't think it's specific to 64bit OS's though. The best solution for this is to print from a version of the document created with the "Remove Field Codes" option from the EndNote tools.  (Or, Convert to Plain Text in the 2007 ribbon). Make sure you do not save the resulting document over your Original, as it will have it's EndNote Codes removed. Having done this, try printing from the document created by that process. Since it's EndNote elements have been removed, you shouldn't have any trouble.   Thanks,

Do you "attach" PDFs with each reference? Do you use absolute link or relative link?   I guess if you attached all the pdfs in DATA folders, you should be able to migrate whole library without a problem.

Subject: Re: Attachments no longer connect to endnote references Author: Rosemary (Visitor) Date: 02-14-2009 11:24 PM Thanks for the response. I wasn't aware that there are multiple ways to link a file. I have a specific folder in which I keep all of my downloaded articles, and whenever I download a new one and cite it in EndNote, I just drag and drop the article into the Attachment field of the citation. This creates a link, along a specific path, between the EndNote reference and the actual text.    The path between the references and the texts has now changed, and so if I try to open an article from within an EndNote citation I get an error message saying that the file cannot be launched. There is no option to "find file" as there might be in other programs.   Hope this information is helpful.

If it starts like "Internal-", your attachments are copied to a folder in "Data" folder. If it starts from hard drive volume name, endnote is using absolute path.   Did you migrate the Data folder with library file? If you didn't, all of your attachments were in the folder, and new Data folder was created in your new OS and environment. Hopefully you still have all the files in the old OS.

Subject: Re: Attachments no longer connect to endnote references Author: Rosemary (Visitor) Date: 02-15-2009 05:07 PM Okay, I think I get what you're saying, but I don't keep my attachment files in the default data folder; I keep them in a specific folder that I set up myself, because I wanted all the texts to be in the same place as all my other university-related documents. I use them in non-endnote related contexts as well, so it seemed illogical to keep them in the Endnote folder. I guess that means I use the "absolute" way of linking them.   So I know exactly where all the articles are, and I know exactly where the references are. It's just the link in between them that's changed (because some of the names of the folders in between changed due to a change in system).     In other programs that I've come across, when a path between two linked elements changes, there's sometimes a dialog box that opens up that allows you to go and find the linked file, so that the system can automatically change the path and remember the new path for next time. Sometimes there's even an option for "change all" or something like that. This is what I'm hoping to be able to find here, and so far it doesn't appear as though EndNote has such an option...

Then, it should work.   I tested migrating path text from "File attachment" to URL field is possible. Because "Show all fields" display path text to the attachment, if I can move them to URL, I can "batch process" to change the path link using "Change text" command. Then, I can move the URL path back to File attachment.   Good idea? Unfortunately, it didn't work. "Change & Move field" command doesn't allow me to move the filed data from "File attachment" field.

It must be called something else and be kept somewhere else... but if its only purpose in this case is to be able to see what the path is, then I don't really need it, since I know what the path is. Or is there another reason why it would be useful here?   The way I have my system set up now, I can't just change the folder names to reflect the previous path. I thought about that already, but was hoping there was another way besides that or reconnecting every single individual article. Looks like I just have to reconnect the articles manually.    Thanks anyway for your help!

But, it is too late to point it out for you. Manual also says method to convert from "absolute link" to "relative link", but not the other way around.

I hadn't even thought about that.    I think it's the default in the Mac version to make a relative link as well; I just changed it when I first started using endnote because I wanted all my articles in the same place as my other school stuff, and didn't want to use up the space it would take to have them all duplicated, several hundred MBs. That was a few years ago and I hadn't had any issues, so I forgot that there was another way to do it completely.    On another note, I just tried the "convert to relative link" thing, but it didn't even work because the path has changed so it couldn't even find the absolute link. So I guess my only option is to do it all manually. It's too bad EndNote doesn't have a better way to do it!

The CWYW problem with Word 2007, however, has not gone away, and according to EndNote company information, there is no solution for this to date. That leaves Word 2007 users, not a few, in a bit of a spot. But at least I have a bibliography to work with again!

Subject: Re: Display and bibliography formats Author: Leanne (Guru) Date: 02-15-2009 10:20 PM You don't tell us which version of Endnote you are using, however, as far as I remember this applies to all of the recent versions:   The document remembers what format it was last formated in and reformats according to that style.  Subsequently changing the style in Endnote the program, which handles the preview options, should not affect the CWYW formatting of the paper, unless you specifically change it in the format Bibliography menu window.    So I think you have what you want in the current implimentations of Endnote.

Subject: Re: Endnote X1 "Unspecified Error" when Word 2007 comments open Reviewer Pane Author: MikeV (Moderator) Date: 02-17-2009 04:10 PM Track Changes comments and EndNote formatting just don't play well together -- they both use field codes that are very similar to each other, and consequently EndNote gets confused when it sees a comment, attempts to format it, and we get problems.   We don't currently have a solution to this issue, but we do have a workaround:  Basically, you want to make sure that you don't have both comments and formatted citations in your document at the same time.  If you must use comments in your document, unformat your citations (using the Unformat Citations / Convert to Unformatted Citations command), then turn off Instant Formatting (see instructions, below) and use only unformatted citations in your document.  Then, when you're ready to format your bibliography, delete all the comments in your document using the "Delete All Comments In Document" command on your Reviewing tab, then use Format Bibliography or Update Citations and Bibliography (depending on the version of Word that you're using).    To disable instant formatting:   In Word 2002 (XP)/2003, select Tools / EndNote / Format Bibliography. In Word 2007, go to the "Add-ins" tab and EndNote / Format Bibliography. With EndNote X1/X2 and Word 2007, hit (ALT+3) on your keyboard to bring up the Format Bibliography screen. Select the "Instant Formatting" tab. Click the Turn Off button. This will prevent issue when working with the current document. To prevent it from occurring in future documents... In Word 2002 (XP)/2003, select Tools / EndNote / Cite While You Write Preferences. In Word 2007, go to the "Add-ins" tab and EndNote / Cite While You Write Preferences.

Open your hard drive in the Finder and go to the Applications:EndNote X1/X2:Cite While You Write folder. With EndNote X2.0.1 only, download the file here (http://endnote.com/support/faqs/Files/X201CWYW.zip), and place the contents of the zip file into the Cite While You Write folder. There are two files you need, depending on your version of word. You need to create an Alias of the two files and place them in your Word startup folder. Use the File>Make Alias command from the Finder to create aliases of these files based on your version of Word: EndNote Web.bundle (Word X and 2004) and EndNote CWYW Word X (Word X) or EndNote CWYW Word 2004 (Word 2004) Copy the alias files to the Word startup folder. Here are the default Word Startup locations which may be different on your computer: For Word X: "Microsoft Office X:Office:Startup:Word" For Word 2004: "Microsoft Office 2004:Office:Startup:Word" Change the name of the alias files to have the same names as the original files. Normally, the word alias is appended to the name and should be removed. Open EndNote and a library, then open Word, and the tools should load as expected.

The problem I originally reported on was about one of them; I hadn't used the other since switching OS. I pulled it up yesterday and tried to open a file attachment through the reference... and it worked. Strange, because the articles associated with this library were also moved to a different folder, thus changing the path. Somehow Endnote was able to find them anyway.

Your workaround is viable, and easier than mine, but I think it's less flexible.  Same destination, different paths.   It's worth noting that EndNote for Pages on the Mac has a handy check box for "In Bibliography Only" that solves this issue -- it  does exactly what the name implies, inserting a cite only in the bib and not into the text.  The cursor position determines where in the bib the cite appears, if it's sorted in order of appearance.

Subject: Re: Edit citations in footnotes Author: johneast (Enthusiast) Date: 02-19-2009 01:16 AM I haven't looked at the Instructions for Authors for this journal, but the EndNote style is set up as an author-date style, like Harvard or APA. This means that it normally requires references in the text of the document, in the form (Smith 1999).   So presumably citations in the footnotes should also follow that format? If you open the style for editing and go to the Footnotes>Templates, you can use the "Format citations" box to select "Same as citations." Then your references in the footnotes will be in the form (Smith 1999) and you can use the Edit Citations command to insert page numbers as a suffix.   As myoshigi suggested, you can then edit the Citations>Templates to insert the Cited Pages field, which will allow you to use the Pages box in the Edit Citations dialogue. But this is a bit trickier and involves use of EndNote's special formatting characters.

Subject: Re: Novice question: how to show editor of a book by an author Author: johneast (Enthusiast) Date: 02-19-2009 01:29 AM This is a problem that normally only arises in the humanities. The two standard humanities styles (MLA and Chicago 15th A) are both formatted to accommodate the workaround of putting the editor of the text into the Series Editor field.   The only EndNote reference type that really deals with this effectively is the "Ancient Text" reference type. It has fields for both Author and Editor. Unfortunately neither the MLA nor the Chicago 15th A output style is set up to format the Ancient Text reference type, so it's easier just to use the Series Editor workaround.

I can see this icon on another computer with Endnote X1. So I think that it is rather a problem with Endnote or library itself, rather than PDF reader.

R. are recognized as the same.    Journals often require variants to be handled in this way, and Endnote is not clarvoiyant about when they are the same or when they are not.  Smith T and Smith T. R. could be different and if they are not, then how is Endnote supposed to know that?      I cannot replicate the last problem, with the initials being included even if you have only one quoted.  I am not certain, but I have never had the fact that the library contains another author with the same surname affecting how it is inserted in a  manuscript.  Only if both are first (or second of two) authors are used in the manuscript. Are you sure you didn't fix something in a reference, but that the manuscript is still pulling information from the travelling library copy?  Try unformating all the references and reformating them, which should look only in the library.

Subject: Re: Word 2007 crashes post MS office sp1 with EndNote installed. Author: ejtbq (New User) Date: 02-20-2009 03:43 PM Just wanted to share my problem/solution -- related but not exactly the same for others who might be in the same boat. I began experiencing the same problems this week after a pack of Windows security updates were installed on 2-18-09. I had previously been running Endnote X1 with Word 2007 just fine on a brand-new computer with 32-bit Vista Home Premium.   Since the Windows updates, I got the Endnote "unknown" error message box popping up when opening Word, and then Word would hang and become immediately inoperable, as described above. Uninstalling Endnote allowed Word to work, but Word would crash upon exit, and reinstalling EndNote again made it hang.   With EndNote installed, but not "linked" to Word through CWYW, I checked Word add-ins, as described in the solution from Jason. The EndNote add-ins were in fact not disabled, and I couldn't even remove them. Dead end there.   I then looked into the "corrupt Word preferences." The MS support Guided Help link provided in the EndNote FAQ link provided by Jason doesn't work for Vista. With Vista, you have to edit the registry manually. See directions here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/940791   After registry edits, I restarted Word and it worked and exited without crashing.

Subject: Re: Edit citations in footnotes (suffix and prefix) Author: johneast (Enthusiast) Date: 02-22-2009 09:45 PM If you are using a footnote style where the Footnote Templates have the setting "Format citations in -- Using Footnote Format", then the Prefix and Suffix functions won't work.   Footnote styles in EndNote have always been like this. If you need a prefix, you just type it in the footnote before inserting the citation. For a suffix, you use the Pages box in the Edit Citations dialog.   Normally, all real footnote styles (like Philosophy of the Social Sciences) have their templates configured to support the Cited Pages function.

Subject: Re: web references with lower case letters Author: johneast (Enthusiast) Date: 02-22-2009 10:58 PM In library cataloguing (at least in the English-speaking world), titles are always entered in sentence case.   When EndNote imports references from a database, whether by a filter or by a connection file, it has the facility to change upper case into sentence/headline, but that's all it can do. The filters and connection files are unable to change sentence case into headline case.   When you output your reference from EndNote to Word, the output style can be configured to change capitalisation of the Title field to headline case. So that may partially solve your problem.

I want my fellow authors to add comments and log their changes, espesially when I give them a doc that is supposed to be free of EndNote stuff (as they don't all have EndNote).   Your suggestion obviously implies the presence of remnants of code in the word document that is not removed by just replacing the fieldcodes with their values (ctrl-6 or in Mac Word 2008: shift-cmd-F9).

Subject: Re: Several questions on formatting Author: Leanne (Guru) Date: 02-23-2009 07:06 PM Okay, and now for 1)  It is probably that you don't have a Bibliography template set up for the reference type "personal letters" (which I don't seem to have in my ref types, but maybe I deleted it or converted it to another type).  I do have Personal Communications.  So if you have created that reference type, and Endnote doesn't have a matching Bibliography template for that reference type, then it would apply the "generic" style.    So if you tell us what your Personal letters, generic equivalents are (I am thinking you put the "author" in the "secondary author" field and the recipient in the generic "Author" position) then you can create a bibliography template that swaps them around.  To do this, I usually first check that all the fields I want are appropriately named in the reference type (edit> preferences> Reference Types, modify reference types and select "personal letters" from the dropdown).    Then I edit my style and make sure that style is selected (ticked) in the Reference types under Bibliography Templates (from the "reference type dropdown list) and then copy and paste the "generic" to the reference type of choice (in the Bibliogaphy templates).  This converts the "generic" names to those designated in your customized reference type.  If they aren't in the customized reference type, I think they just disappear, leaving punctuation you need to delete.   Now, if they aren't right, you can tweak the order, font, punctuation.  Use the insert field drop down to make sure you get the spelling right.  Don't forget to use the "forced separation" and link "adjacent text" options to keep the punctuation and spacing associated with the correct fields (in case any of the fields are not always filled).  then test it, and modify as necessary.

Subject: Re: Endnote X1 file attachements error - "This URL(\\) could not be launched" Author: JimH (New User) Date: 02-24-2009 05:54 AM I like to name my files with the title which can make them really long.  I copied my library to a flash drive and onto another computer.  The file names had been truncated when I copied the flash drive onto the other computer.    The path on both computers was the same which made the following solution possible.  Had the base path on the second computer been longer this would not have worked, as the path length was already at its limit.   Since I had some unicode characters, zipping on windows was not possible.  I instead downloaded winrar and archived the library.  I transferred this rar file over to the other computer and used the function "extract to here" as otherwise it complained about the file character limit.,   Two Endnote suggestions seems to arise from this: 1) There should be more flexibility in specifying the base folder for a reference based on its inputs, something like [year]_[first author] or whatever (this would be user specified) and perhaps even unique for different styles with a default base style provide.  The default name is really long.  In addition the file name itself should be modifiable as well although this gets tricky with multiple files for the same reference (Perhaps only applied to the first reference). 2) Since the problem is known, an option should exist to fix all bad links, whereby the library checks if a file exists, and if not does a local search within the directory to find the best match (This is for relative links).  I'm not sure for multiple files if it is possible to always back out the matching short file names or not.  For example in some reference folder you might have the following:   numberDifferent2002.pdf lightEmittingDiodesSupp.pdf   These might become (I'm not sure about the rules on the name length, so this format might be wrong, although the ~# seems to be consistent) number~1 lightE~1   From these shorter names it is relatively obvious which ones belong to which.  In this case it seems appropriate for EndNote to switch its links to the shorter paths.  Granted I'm not sure if that is always the case and this is really specific to relative links.  When there is only one file link in a reference folder this matching becomes trivial.   Good luck everyone!

Subject: Re: combining two libraries Author: Leanne (Guru) Date: 02-25-2009 04:48 PM Import one into the other, is the best way, discarding duplicates.  You can search for duplicates that escape by tweaking the duplicate preferences. I often make it something like Journal, volume and title or and authors, to find them.   Punctuations shouldn't matter, but if the author has a UTF-8 character which is different from the ASCII versions, for example, they won't match, and that is when I have the most problems with non-matching duplicates.  I have this habit of correcting the spelling of my colleagues French and German names, and then it gets imported again.

Subject: Re: Follett MARC records Author: johneast (Enthusiast) Date: 02-26-2009 02:08 AM Most of the connection files for library catalogues are configured to import MARC records. Of course, there are different versions of MARC.   When importing the file, at the "Import Option" where you choose the filter, click on "Use Connection File".   This will open the Connections Manager. Try an obvious library catalogue like Library of Congress.   EndNote will try to filter the records using the filter templates in the connection file that you have chosen.

Subject: Re: Follett MARC records Author: scottC (New User) Date: 02-26-2009 04:29 AM I know pretty much nothing at all about the way MARC records work, so I'm just going with what makes sense. Unfortunately, I know enough about MARC records to know that the way they work doesn't make sense.   I've tried editing various things in the "MARC Records" and "Records Layout" section in the connection file editor. I've changed the subfield delimiter to a colon, because that is what I see in the MARC record designating the subtitle. I've tried a couple different values for "Data starts in column" because I'm not exact sure what in that nonsense that starts off the record qualifies as a column (any help here?). I've activated the radio button for "First character is field designator", as that looks more like the records I have than the other option.   I've also tried a few different values to designate the first tag, and have left it at 222 because that is the earliest tag I can clearly discern, though I've also tried 245 because that is what should be the title field.   None of this has done any good. When I try to import the records it doesn't acknowledge that the file has anything that's supposed to be a record. I'm just looking at an empty library.   To answer your question, the record originates from Follett, which is an American bookseller specializing in library orders.

If so, I think you can do that with Endnote X2's find full text function. I personally do not use that function very often, but somebody should be able tell you that kind of "batch" download is possible or not.   As to the response to your first post, place some kind of master library in the server, then do the batch download to the .data folder. Individuals who have endnote library will refer to the .data folder in the server via the URL field.   Sounds like possible scenario? But, I've never constructed such shared library myself so somebody may have better ideas. I personally prefer keeping endnote library to individual, because (I believe) collection of research reference is a personal matter.   best,

Subject: Re: Format Issues Addition Author: LadyParvati (New User) Date: 02-28-2009 02:43 PM I now have discovered a third problem: EndNote is sometimes not combining citations in text when I have two or more references in a row.

Subject: Re: Format Issues Addition Author: myoshigi (Maven) Date: 02-28-2009 04:54 PM I suspect some corruption of field codes in your word document.   So, how about unformat your document, copying a short segment or chapter which has the "unrecognized" citations to a new Word document, and format the new document. Does endnote find and format them correctly?   Of course you don't want to retype the whole document, but you may need to do a lot of copy & past to carefully inspect the entire document (copy segment by segment to new document, make sure Endnote finds all the references and format).   Good luck.

Subject: Re: cleaning up the word document Author: Leanne (Guru) Date: 02-28-2009 05:59 PM If there is a corruption, I always first unformat all the references (assuming you have the library intact to reformat them), delete any remaining bibliography, and then copy and paste everything but the last paragraph symbol to a new file.  Now look at those two references and make sure they have the right record number etc.  What version of Endnote?  some endnote versions "let you" insert from the online search window, which doesn't get the right record number.  This is one of the reasons they went to the X2 integrated way of doing things, to make that impossible, I think.    With number 3, I would look at the unformated version to see if there are any characters or spaces between the curley brakets, if a space, search and replace any }<space>{ with }{.    Now reformat the bibliography on the new document.  Does it work?

To make things worse, the developer's response is sometimes (or often) "we are unable to reproduce the same issue in our testing" or "the problem is probably due to the language that makes Word add-in", which is a meaningless blaming game for end users.   This information may not be a real help for you, but it is reality. I suggest you to call directly Thomson Reuter about your problem with a hope they can assist individual problems.   So, I've been waiting (long long time) for the next version of Windows 7, hoping it improves the situation. But even with the Windows 7 is out, I will install it in just one computer and test all my essential programs work flawlessly or not, before I upgrade other computers. When Vista was out, we did so and found too many problems, and our institute decided to stay with XP. Even we buy new PCs with Vista, we wipe out hard drive and install XP. Vista to me is such a lame duck operating system. And I don't like Word 2007's "tool bar clutter".   If you don't like this kind of "downgrade" ideas, check other posts about Vista and Word 2007, and call Thomson Reuter. That's all I can say.

Subject: Re: Output Styles: difficulties in saving changes Author: Leanne (Guru) Date: 03-02-2009 06:53 PM Let me guess, Endnote X2?  If so, it has been saved in a new "style" (usually with the word Copy appended to the original) and you need to reformat with the new style, not the original.  If you insisted on naming it the same, I am not sure what happens, as there would now be two copies of the style, and I am not sure how Endnote distinguishes them from one another (or it it will even let you do that).   It is actually always safest to save the file to a new name, so you don't get it confused with the original journal specified style, unless you are certain you are correcting it.  Then you could (I think) copy the corrected version into the Endnote program styles folder to replace the original one.  Even they, I append a date that it was updated, so I can keep track of corrected styles.

Subject: Re: Problems with EndNote (authors and number of references cited) Author: ksudheim (New User) Date: 03-03-2009 04:10 AM This problem just about drove me mad.  So when I discovered the solution I thought I had to share. Go to Tools >  Open Terms List > Author's Term's List   Hit the tab named "Lists" Select Authors.  Under Delimiters the "," box is likely checked.  This is the problem.  When endnote sees your author name in your file named Smith, J.S. it thinks J.S. is another author, because the comma is set to divide authors from each other.   The solution is to delete the "Authors" list and replace it with a new list with the same name ("Authors").  In the new list make sure the "," is not checked.  Using the ";" or the "\" is okay though.     If this reply save you a therapy bill I won't turn away your contributions :) or gift baskets.

Subject: Re: Problems with EndNote (authors and number of references cited) Author: myoshigi (Maven) Date: 03-03-2009 05:11 AM I don't think delimiters other than comma can be used for author entry. Delimiters for Author List are greyed out and non-editable. These delimiters, like tab, dash, and semi-colon, are delimiters for the custom term lists such that multiple terms are entered in a single line.   Endnote author format (for the data entry) has been very specific and fixed: (Surname), Initials of given name with space between. So, it should look like Smith, A. G. Anything before the first comma is regarded as surname, and anything after the first comma is regarded as given name.   A G Smith is also acceptable entry format, but most of the import filters parse authors with Smith, A. G. format. Also, each author needs to be on separate line. If you have multiple authors in one line, it will not interpret correctly.   I'm not sure how the initial post ended up Smith & J (two authors).

Subject: Re: Correct footnotes Author: johneast (Enthusiast) Date: 03-04-2009 12:53 AM Maybe you are getting confused between numbered styles and footnote styles?   You can easily convert a document formatted in an author-date style to a numbered style. Your citations in the text will be converted to numbers. Suffixes should still appear, but if you inserted your page numbers using the Pages box in the Edit Citations dialogue, they will not appear when you convert to a numbered style.   Footnote styles are quite different. You have to create the footnote in Word, and then insert the reference. You can't automatically convert a document with an author-date style to a footnote style. You have to remove all the references from the text, create the footnotes, and then reinsert the references from EndNote. Footnote styles ignore any data that you put in the Suffix box of the Edit Citations dialogue, but they will normally format data that you put in the Pages box.

Isn't there an option in Endnote that does this automatically?

Book section considers the chapter writer as the primary author and puts editor as the secondary author. There is no automatic parsing between these two reference types, and I don't think X3 will change that. It's been this way for long long time with Endnote.   Please check your output style how book/book section/edited book are formatted. You can use all of three types, but it tends to get confusing, so I usually use either book or book section. Unfortunately, referencing book/book section/edited book has been pretty much manual job, meaning each user has to tailor the entry and output style. Even publishers' author instructions are pretty vague about these differences.

Subject: Re: New book section references based on existing edited book references in library Author: myoshigi (Maven) Date: 03-05-2009 04:01 AM Adding to the previous post: Most of journals in biomedicine field don't define book, edited book, and book chapter separately in author instructions. They just mention book v. book chapter, or complete book v. book section and present format examples for each. This means they accept editor(s) as the representing author of edited book, even chapters are written by other individuals.   Due to this reason, I just use Book and Book section reference types, and put editor's name into the (primary) author fileld even it is indeed edited book. If I want to refer to the entire book, then I insert the citation in the document using this book reference type record. If I want to refer to chapters in the (edited) book, I duplicate the book reference record, modify to Book Section type, move the Author (in fact, editor) name to the Editor field, move Title to Book title, type chapter authors to Author field, type chapter title to Title, and manually enter page numbers of the chapter. Once I do that, then duplicate the record to create references to other chapters.   Sounds like cumbersome steps, but it doesn't happen very often in my field, and generally works just fine. I've gone through INDEX MEDICUS -Endlink years, so easy and quick enough.

Subject: Re: Creating a database which EndNote can filter information Author: emilyatchemlib (Enthusiast) Date: 03-05-2009 03:16 PM Refer to your Endnote Help: "Creating Structured Text Files that EndNote Can Import".  I have found the easiet way to do this is to create an Access report that converts records into "Tagged EndNote Import File". Each record needs to begin with the Reference type tag (e.g. %0  Journal Article),. Each record is separated by a blank line. Check your Endnote help for "Creating a Tagged EndNote Import File" for a list of field labels.

Re: Harvard Styles

Subject: Re: Harvard Styles Author: Leanne (Guru) Date: 03-05-2009 07:39 PM And that is your answer.  Harvard is basically an author-date style but the specifics can vary.  It is primarily used in the sciences and is the basis for the more detailed styles used by many journals, for example the American Psychological Assc (APA).   They can vary as to whether they  include author first names, or initials, with and without periods, include issue number or not, abbreviations of journals (or not).   Hence, there isn't just "one" Harvard Style. Naming one so, would be difficult.  You could just use the generic Author-Date that comes with Endnote (as a default listing I believe) and that would technically qualify as "Harvard Style".

Subject: Re: Howto install Endnote x2 on a server and make a client to connect to it ? Author: PTravis (Moderator) Date: 03-06-2009 06:10 AM You cannot install EndNote X2 on a server and then have workstation machines run EndNote from the server.  You need to install EndNote on each on the workstations.   If you share a library on the network you must set the sharing permissions to Read-Only for all users.  If the library is going to be accessed by multiple users at the same time it has to be Read-Only.
