Subject: Abbreviation & the Term List
Author: bkuropa (New User)

Hello, I have been updating a very large EndNote database (not online) and was looking for some advice with respect to the Journal Term lists: Many of the bibliographic entries have been displaying incorrectly because imports from SciFinder, etc. leave the primary journal field with an abbreviation instead of the full name.  The full name is reported in the Alternate Journal field.  As a result, any entry like this appears in the biblo as full form (incorrect). Since I'd rather not have ~5 different terms defined for the same journal (every time I get a slightly different abbreviation in the Journal field), what would be the most efficient way of making the program consistent?  Additionally, are there any precautionary steps I can take with future Imports to ensure consistency?  (I'd really rather not edit every import for this...) Thanks, Bryan

Hi!   In footnotes and bibliographies I want to make appear certain first names with more than 1 character.   e.g. "Thomas" shall be "Th.", Christian shall be "Ch."   all other first names shall appear with just 1 Initial.    Can anybody help me?    Thanks,

Subject: Abbreviated author in (author-date) citation system
Author: teabowl1 (New User)

I have a citation that looks something like this in the bibliography (this is a fake citation, by the way):   EPRC (Embassy of the People's Republic of China) 2008 Survey of Occupations among Chinese in Uganda. Kampala: Embassy of People's Republic of China   In the in-text citation, the format should look like this:   (EPRC: 45)   However, I don't know how to get this result. What do I enter in the "author" field in order to get the correct result for both the in-text citation and the bibliography?   In the "author" field of the record entry, if I enter this:   EPRC, (Embassy of the People's Republic of China)   I do get the correct in-text citation, but the bibliography will be wrong because of that comma. It will look like this:   EPRC, (Embassy of the People's Republic of China) 2008 Survey of Occupations among Chinese in Uganda. Kampala: Embassy of People's Republic of China
