Subject: Re: Import from EMBASE.com missing journal titles Author: Leanne (Authority) Date: 11-16-2009 06:50 PM Yes, you can save the downloaded file to your desktop, but the filter you use is auto selected? or are you given the option to choose one?  It is the filter choice that Endnote makes, that is often not the right one.  There are two locations those may live.  The first - the installation folder - which on a PC is in the "often hidden" Program Folder, Endnote, Filters folder.  Then if you downloaded or edited one, that would be in the folder specified in the folder location preferences (usually "my documents/endnote/filters" as default).

Subject: Re: Import from EMBASE.com missing journal titles Author: smidgebean (New User) Date: 11-18-2009 01:26 PM I have tried the .txt file option, and it does work pretty well. I suppose it's a workable solution. However, I do serve as EndNote support for approximately 40 people in my company, most of whom (no matter how much I tell them otherwise) will choose that RIS option. RIS export has worked fine in the past; it's just recently that it's been missing fields.   I guess I'm just wondering what's going on with whatever filter it's trying to use. It also seems that the RIS files and the .txt files exported from EMBASE have completely different tags, which makes no sense to me.

Subject: Re: Import from EMBASE.com missing journal titles Author: Leanne (Authority) Date: 11-18-2009 01:48 PM Yep, I think Gecko is spot on, It really looks to me like Embase is using the wrong tag and not using the RIS standards.  It has T1 instead of the TI that the standard RIS filter uses for Title.  So either EMBASE should consider making a change, or you will need to edit the filter to replace the TI with T1 in the filter for title and make that the EMBASE(RIS) filter.  Since I am still not sure how the automatic filter selection works in Endnote, this may mean removing any other RIS filters from the users filter folders?  It would be great if the filter selection was more transparent, and this might be suggestion forum foder.  I will attach a corrected version later.

I had no idea there was an RIS filter; I'd just assumed it was trying to use one of the many EMBASE filters I have. I deleted all filters except the RIS filter and the PubMed filter (it doesn't seem to interfere, and I really do need that one), and it's working perfectly. Thank you so much!

Subject: Re: importing libraries from old ver. of Endnote Author: myoshigi (Guru) Date: 11-18-2009 07:53 PM Okay, so you don't see record number for several references in the library made/opend by EN X3? Is your X3 demo version or licensed version?   I'm not sure but demo version might have limitation about the number of references it can handle. Besides, when you open EN ver 5 file by EN X3, you probably saw some "warning messages" saying you can't go back. The file format of Endnote was changed drastically when ver 8 was released. So, once you open the library made by <v7, using >v8, then the library will have -converted tag, and you can't go back.   Your problem may be somewhere around these things.

Subject: Re: importing libraries from old ver. of Endnote Author: donjek_cwm (New User) Date: 11-18-2009 08:23 PM I have a licensed version, and I don't think I have an inordinate amount of citations (about 1500).  Perhaps, as you suggested, there was something lost in the progression of versions and I will now have to go through the tedious task of opening each file and assigning a new record number.    I did read somewhere that when saving a library, it is important to have both the .enl as well as a corresponding data file.  I don't know where to find this data file - could this have something to do with it?  Do you know what the purpose of the data file is?

Subject: Re: importing libraries from old ver. of Endnote Author: myoshigi (Guru) Date: 11-18-2009 08:37 PM I am not sure why you feel "tedious" because record number is automatically assigned by Endnote, and it's been that way from the birth of Endnote. Users actually can't change, manipulate, or edit record number. So, you have the field you made back then, like "record number" by yourself?   .data folder contains information associated with library (.enl) file. The files inside look like linking information, commonly found in relational databases, and information about group, indexing, and some file attachments like PDFs.   You always need to move/copy these .enl and .data folder together. They should be located in the same folder your .enl is located.

Subject: Re: importing libraries from old ver. of Endnote Author: donjek_cwm (New User) Date: 11-18-2009 08:55 PM It is tedious because of this:  I have a folder which contains pdf's of all 1500 references.  I saved these pdf's as the record number from endnote.  Thus, when I go to endnote and find an article of interest, I could simply go to this folder and find my article through cross-referencing with the record number.  However, seeming none of my entries in endnote currently have a record number, I have no way of knowing which of the 1500 pdf's in the folder is the document I am trying to locate.

Subject: Re: importing libraries from old ver. of Endnote Author: Leanne (Authority) Date: 11-18-2009 09:03 PM every record has a record number.  When you open the record, that number is in the title bar.  You can view the record number by changing your preferences - library display and add the record number to one of the fields to display.  It is also  the number in the curly brackets when you insert a citation.  So if you haven't moved files from an old library to a new library, the record number will be the same.   Don't import them, just open the library and it will convert them and the record numbers will remain the same.

Using artemisinin as the internal standard, 0.5 mL samples were processed with solid phase extraction (Waters Oasis(registered trademark) HLB column), the elutes were directly injected onto a C18 LC column (Waters, Symmetry(registered trademark), 150 mm null 4.6 mm, 5 (mu)m). Mass detection utilized ESI+ as the ionization mode and MRM as the quantitation mode. In respect to the low ionization capacity of artemether, ammonium formate was added to the LC mobile phase to facilitate ionization (M+NH4+). The calibration range was 2-200 ng/mL. The recovery was 73-81% for artemether and 90-99% for dihydroartemisinin. The validated method was applied to analysis of clinical samples with results in good agreement with an existing method. ER  -   As you will see, the full journal title is in the JF field, and the abbreviated journal title is in the JO field.   If you are using EndNote 9, there is a helper application called Web Export Helper which tells EndNote to import this file using the RefMan RIS filter.   If you open that filter for editing, and go to the template for Journal Article, can you identify the problem? Is the JF tag listed and correctly mapped to the Journal field? If not, edit the filter, close EndNote, reopen and try the direct export again. Alternatively download the latest version of the filter from the EndNote website. It should be backwardly compatible with EndNote 9.   There is also the possibility that older references on the Embase database are tagged differently. I only tested some recent references, and they imported correctly using the RefMan RIS filter supplied with EndNote X3.

Subject: Re: Import error with Issue field Author: johneast (Enthusiast) Date: 12-08-2009 11:21 PM The different versions of the subfield must all be on the same line in the filter template. Versions with distinctive literal text (such as vol. or no.) or distinctive punctuation come first. The version with no distinctive text or punctuation comes last.   So for example the 773 tag might look like this:   773 $aJournal$dYear$gVol. Volume$gv. Volume$rno. Issue$rIssue$qpp. Pages$qp. Pages$qPages   Remember that you will only have one 773 line in the filter template. MARC filters are different from other filters, where you might have several different SO lines in the template.   With a MARC filter you only have one line for each numerical tag (100, 245, 773, etc.), and multiple variants within that tag for the subfields (if necessary).   Hope this helps.

Subject: Re: Importing bibliography with accents, italics, and special characters Author: FrankO (New User) Date: 01-22-2010 09:43 AM I realize this is an old-ish thread but it perfectly addresses my problem.  I recently upgraded from EndNote9 to X3.  Am disappointed at how relatively little seems to have changed through several versions of EndNote.  In particular, to judge from this thread, there is still no way I can change selected words in the titles of references to italic format ? a simple search text and replace format as has been available in most text handling software for the past 20 years.  The options in the Change Text dialog box are truly pathetic for such a mature program as EndNote.  Scientific work is awash with needs for text formatting and special characters, and EndNote is supposed to cater for precisely that type of situation.  Is any progress expected on Change Text options soon? The irony is not lost on me that in typing this message for a mere discussion forum I'm provided with facilities for font selection and format, text alignment and tons of other options.  If this is provided in a free discussion forum software why is it difficult to implement in the EndNote software I've paid good money for??!

My guess is that the missing fields get lost before the EndNote import, when the BibTeX references are converted by JabRef into RIS or the EndNote format. So the problem is caused by the JabRef export filters, and should be reported to the JabRef help forum or the jabref-users mailing list.
