Great suggestion. Unfortunately, I couldn't find such a beast on the EndNote web site. I searched every which way, and cold not seem to come up with the three available term lists. Can anyone post URLs for the different term lists that are currently available? Thanks. PJ Skerrett Brigham and Women's Hospital Harvard Medical School

The term lists are distributed with EndNote 4; I'm not aware of their existence on the web site (although making them available there would seem to be a good idea. The files are: chemical.txt (1338 titles) humanities.txt (2137 titles) medical.txt (8908 titles) ====================================================================== Selden Deemer, Library Systems Administrator PHONE: 404-727-0271 Emory University Libraries FAX: 404-727-0827 Atlanta, Georgia EMAIL: ====================================================================== On Wed, 10 Jan 2001 Patrick Skerrett wrote: > Great suggestion.

Sorry PJ, I thought the updated terms list was on the update site. I will post it to the user-contributed section of Endnote's FTP site once I figure out how to transfer a file there (it won't seem to let me add a file at present). If that doesn't work I will put it on my business website so it can be downloaded. Either way I will put a not on the listserv as to location of the file. The medical journal name terms list was provided to me by EndNote Tech support (William Wong to be specific), so it is from a very reliable source. I don't know how it was compiled but it follows Index Medicus abbreviations (and full journal names). Again, this is a different file than the one originally shipped with EN 4.0 back in spring of last year. I don't know if ISI updated the software package to include the updated medical.txt file since the spring but I kind of doubt it. The original medical.txt term list file was somewhere around 450k as I recall. I do not have a similar updated versions of the two other journal term lists provided with EN 4.0. These would be the humanities journals (about 2000 journal names if memory serves me) and chemistry journals (about 1800 journal names). These two term lists provided with the program only have the full name and the abbreviated version with periods just as the medical.txt file does that came with the program. The only limitation to these terms lists is that if you import references with journals abbreviated without periods (as happens when you download references from PubMed, i.e. NLM) then you cannot convert to full journal names - you are stuck with the abbreviated version. Plus it does not give as much flexibility regarding the original problem of having different versions of a journal name in a given database. Peter ***** Peter Underwood, Pharm.D.
