I want a reference to read: (Statistics New Zealand [SNZ], 2001) Endnote, using the suffix function does this: (Statistics New Zealand, [SNZ], 2001) How can I get rid of the comma after Zealand? Cheers, Cathy Ashwood

1. Set your output style to order the bibliographic entries (you need to choose "other" or "custom"... I forget what the entry is, and I don't have EN here) by Author and Year and leave the rest blank. 2. Ensure that the "author" fields in both references are identical. 3. Ensure that the "year" fields in both references are identical. MP ---- Date: Wed, 17 Jan 2007 14:46:16 -0500 From: /> Subject: Order of same year/author publication Dear All, This may be really simple but how do you get Endnote 7 to put publications which have the same author and year to be put in order of appearance in the text. For example, with the two references below Endnote would like the first to be reference 2003b and the second to be 2003a even though they are cited in the text in the opposite order. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message was sent using MyMail

Hi How can I insert smart quotation marks into reference entries in EndNote X? My document uses smart quotation marks, and the only place where 'straight' single and double quotation marks appears is in EndNote generated references. regards Michael Neugarten PhD student

I'm also interested to know if there's an answer to Michael's question. I use EndNote 9. I am envisioning and dreading having to do a search and replace operation on the finished document, for I have lots of interview data excerpts in my thesis, and situations like the use of " 'cause " as an abbreviation for "because" will end up with the wrong smart quote.

This tells how to get the full journal name rather than the abbreviated on that PubMed gives. I can't get into Netapps/EN to change the import filter. Do you want to fix it or do you want to give me access? I've changed the one on my C drive.

With "use smart quotes" turned on in word, after you do your final reformat (and remove field codes), press ctrl+H (replace), and type " in both the [find what] and [replace with] boxes. Word will then automatically replace all straight quotes with smart quotes. Otherwise, edit your output style, and use "smart quotes" (use Alt+0147, Alt+0148 using the number pad) in the relevant templates.

Hi Nongyao, These are my answers to your questions: 1) I do not have experience in using EndNote 8. But I did not encounter that problem with EndNote X. Not sure whether this works, but you may wish to patch it to the latest update (v.8.0.2) by going to the EndNote website. 2) The spacing between the numbering and the actual text in 'Numbered' is determined by a Tab. To change it, go to 'Edit output style'. Under the 'Bibliography' submenu, go to 'Layout'. This will determine the appearance of citations in your bibliography. -- Best Regards, Andre Wu Sales & Applications Engineer Achema Pte Ltd Tel: +65-63569081 Fax: +65-63569082 Web: http://achema.sg endnote-interest-digest wrote: > endnote-interest-digest Sunday, March 4 2007 Volume 01 : Number 2189 > > > Date: Fri, 2 Mar 2007 13:46:12 -0500 > From: /> > Subject: problems with exporting data > > Hi, > > Could anyone help me please?

While tinyurl and digbig could certainly shorten the URLs in question, there is a even greater risk than just those businesses closing. Using a URL that doesn't link to the actual source page is exactly what a phishing attacker does. While I do not think that either tinyurl or digbig are doing phishing attacks, the security community is trying to train people to NOT click on links that go somewhere you know. Using tinyurl is simply training people not to pay attention to the URLs. Furthermore, you don't ahead of time where the tinyurl or digbig actually leads. While I firmly believe that the managament of the two companies are NOT doing anything evil, a real phisher could create a tinyurl link that lead to someplace nefarious. So I must repeat my original question. Is there anyway to convince Word to break a URL at a selected place without inserting a hyphen? I know how to do this in LaTeX/BibTeX. My question is whether it can be done in Word? (Yes - I know that converting the document to LaTeX would solve the problem. In this particular case, I'ld rather not do that.) Thanks!!

I asked the question in the Firefow user group and was told that you can't manually create an entry in the file type manager. I now download through right clicking and using a download manager that lets me define where I want to get the downloaded file. The disadvantage: I have to import reference by reference. But when I use the standard method: clicking on a link that allows to download an endnote reference, for instance in Google Scholar, I don't see where the downloaded file gets saved. It's a pity.

AVOIDING DUPLICATE DOWNLOADS Jim Seward's post raises a wider issues about managing downloads. It's good practice never to download ANYTHING into your main library. Use a temporay EN library file, then open, check and clean this up before adding to your main library. Downloads invariably go wrong from time to time and dump 'data' in fields where they are invariably not noticed until the time you want to do something urgently and find import field codes added to author lists, buried midway through an abstract or wherever... It's always somewhere you cannot clean up easily in a big library! Only import stuff you are confident is relevant and clean. This is quite in addition to the duplicate problem, but also helps there. Use the EN import function. In EN X Win this is (File/Import/Import Data File/Choose File). Choose your newly cleaned, temporary EN download file. Check the file type as EN Library (default)and click on Discard Duplicates (not default - on drop down liST). Unless you have a special reason (unlikely), make sure that Text Translation is set to the defult of No Translation. Hit Import. Job done. All this takes far longer to write / read than to do.

hi, i am currently experimenting with the figures and tables function in endnote x. can anyone show me how to automatically update your figures and tables if they've been changed in the link file. a quick example may be in order. for instance, you decided to remove fullstops after each table or figure captions which you can do in the tables/figures preferences. how do you get endnote to automatically reformat all your figures and tables to follow the changes? what i have been doing is to re-insert each one. this, as you may imagine, is tedious. there must be a better way of doing this. i tried updating fields but it doesn't work. i tried updating links it doesn't work either. any help is appreciated. thanks. albert

John - If more than one copy of a reference has been cited in a document, and then one of the copies is deleted from the EndNote library, the Format Bibliography function will not automatically make the correction, but will throw up the "Select Matching Reference" window at every point in the document where the deleted copy of the reference has been cited. The best way I have found to deal with the problem is as follows: 1) Save a back-up copy of the document 'just in case' 2) Unformat citations 2) Click "Format Bibliography" 3) When the "Select Matching Reference" window appears, close that window (not the document) and return to the EndNote library to find the remaining copy of the reference. (If necessary, return to the backed-up copy of the document to check that the correct reference has been found.) 4) Return to the document, delete the faulty citation and insert the correct citation. 5) Repeated occurences of the incorrect citation can be dealt with in the same way, or by using Word's 'Find and Replace' command.

Re: eliminating same author ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: Wed, 28 Mar 2007 17:13:24 -0400 From: /> Subject: Re: eliminating same author Karen, Please be more specific. Repeating your earlier post does not make it easier for list members to help if you don't provide additional information. How exactly do you edit the references? Do you delete the author's name in Word or do you go through EndNote's "Edit citation(s)" menu? What do you mean by "it won't let me eliminate the same author for the second year"? How does this refusal to eliminate the author manifest itself? One quick fix would be to remove the field codes and edit the citations manually, so that you have a properly formatted proposal.
