turning off instant formatting--benefits
Author: John Fullerton    Posted: Tue, 30 Jan 2007 14:26:22 -0500
Hi A customer asked me today if there was a way to keep EndNote from adding the references after the article while writing the article. I thought that turning off instant formatting was the only way that I knew of (or typing Ctrl + Enter in Word to put references on next page of the document). Is there any other way to address the request, and what benefits have others found in turning off instant formatting? Have a nice day John Paul Fullerton

John, I am not sure I know why someone wants to do this, but if you used a style where there were no "outputs" in the Bibliography templates, I assume there would be a blank bibliography? Or are they worried that it should be somewhere else in the document? Once you move it, it will stay where ever you move it to...

I have always preferred to work without instant formatting: it is faster (no computer processing involved when adding references) it is easier to manipulate the reference once you learn the rules: many people on this list have had difficulty permanently removing the author from their in-text citation - you can do it manually and easily without instant formatting you can easily prepare multiple references I don't need to see the reference list until I run the bibliography. As you have mentioned, the other way to address this request is to place the reference list that builds as you use CWYW, should you wish to use it, at the end of the document. As previous people have posted recently, I also believe Endnote needs to make these rules easier to find - I can't tell you how many times I've printed this page from the Endnote user guide so colleagues can manipulate their own references! regards monica Monica Barratt PhD Student National Drug Research Institute On 31/01/07, John.Fullerton <John.Fullerton > wrote: Hi A customer asked me today if there was a way to keep EndNote from adding the references after the article while writing the article.

But also note that Instant Formatting does not work with manually typed temp citations. <0x0192>

Hi, I often teach my graduate students about turning this off because when you have a lengthy bibliography (100+ references) as many dissertators do, it tends to slow things down in the word processor.
