Hi,
Does anyone have this experience that the date of a ".enl" file was printed
as a future date. I have this problem repeatedly when some of my ".enl"
files are dated as 2003/2004. Of course, I checked the date/time of my
computer and it is correct. I have this problem because I worked both in the
office and at home. When I try to synchronize files, there is always a
problem that my ".enl" files have a future date and cannot be synchronized
correctly. Expert opinion appreciated.

Dear Tanya

This is the outline I use and hand out (I have inserted the text of the
document below, attachments aren't allowed to the interest group). I am a
scientist who randomly give a talk about once a year at our institute, for
anyone who is interested. It closely follows the tutorial in the manual,
but reminds me the important things to cover. Really, it is to demonstrate
what the program can do and what it is possible to do, not to teach everyone
how to do everything (as, unless they have the computers in front of them,
they can't really learn how to do it all, what to click, with which mouse
button, etc). Even so, this takes at least an hour and it helps to schedule
for an hour an a half. I use a computer and project it to a screen. I use
my own library and a paper I am working out. I bring a paper, and show them
how to down load directly from pubmed and a medical library book collection
(like Madison, Wisconsin). Remember that Endnote also has an examples
folder which has a mini-library and paper to format.

All this is done using a real computer and using the same projection we
would use for PowerPoint presentations, which works great.

Then I tell them to go back to their computer an figure out how it all
really works. Not to be afraid to play, follow this outline which is
available on our network, and always save multiple versions, until they are
confident. Back up libraries, and documents together. The interactive
tutorial is okay, but a real demonstration is better.

The help function in endnote (at least on the PC) is also very good and
worth pointing out to them.

Subject: Teaching Tips for Physicians?

Hello, everyone. I am a medical reference librarian.
I've been learning Endnote 4, a bibliographic
software, in order to teach it to medical students,
residents, and faculty. I was planning on having the
participants go through Endnote's interactive
tutorial, which shows some of the basic features, and
then illustrate importing citations from Ovid's
MEDLINE into a Word document.

If you have taught bibliographic software before, can
you please post to the list any ideas and tips on
publicizing and conducting the class, as well as other
areas which you feel are important to cover? If you
know of any relevant URLs, I'd appreciate it, too.

Thanks,

Tanya

Quick Demo of Endnote program updated Jan 9, 2001 Leanne Wiedemann
Directions for installation of Endnote on your computer are in a word
document on the N: (endnote) drive. If you don't see an N: drive, please
contact IT. A copy of this document is also located on the N: drive.

Start program
· can make it open automatically when start Word, but slows down Word
startup. Only do if working mostly on manuscripts, not if mostly doing other
kinds of documents.
· can open from Word in toolbar (Go to Endnote) or create an icon on
your toolbar (Endnote 5 comes with a toolbar).
· Can open by navigating to folder and clicking on the library icon
(or set up a shortcut)
· Create a new library DO NOT SAVE IT ON THE N: ROOT (best keep it on
Home (H:) or Lab (L:) drives
· Library window (add record numbers to field's shown)

Open an existing library, change preferences
· and make it the default (if you are usually working with a single
library)
o you could choose to open several and close the one you don't want
· set up other preferences from EndNote
· cite while you write preferences from Word- New feature of EndNote 5
· jump to the next author's reference beginning with "Wie"
· sort the library by year, title, record number
· Make a new library
· Copy references from one window into the other

Select and open an existing reference
· double click on one
· edit it (ooops, how do I un-edit it)
· next reference
· close the reference (ctrl W or click on the small x in upper rt
corner). This automatically saves any changes.

How to add a reference, if it isn't published and available in PubMed
· Open a reference to edit
· Create a new reference (can adapt so not all fields showing)
o Author-Surname COMMA F. SPACE! S. <carriage return>
o Next Author-Surname, F. S.
o Etc.
o Tab to next entry or click with mouse.
· Close the reference when finished (using the small x in corner or
ctrl-W

Get references from the internet (Pubmed, or books from the National Library
of Congress, etc)
· File, Connect (to pubmed)
· Search for an author and year
· Copy to library
o Drag and drop
o Use the copy to after selecting references
· Create a mini-library to import into master library later
· can use to eliminate duplicates
· the mini-library can be reviewed before import
· can apply keywords to set before importing or drag and dropping
o Use keywords to organize
o Use label or record number to organize reprints
o Use the URL field to link to a pdf on computer, network, intranet
(to come) or on the internet (accessiblility)

Create a list of references
· Select a style
· Select and sort references (for example, select by year or keyword)
· Select all (ctrl A) or Edit menu choice
· Copy formatted (ctrl K) or Edit menu choice
· Show clipboard -Edit menu choice
o You can also click on the bottom right hand. Show preview, to have
the formatted reference for one of the selected references shown (good way
to see that it is formatted correctly)

Using endnote while writing a paper or grant (using Word Toolbar or tool
menu Add-ins)
· Open paper, (open endnote, find/open/close to have the appropriate
library)
· Cite the references (get from your library)
· Insert (Endnote 5 feature - Cite while you write, on or off)
· Format the reference list (unless using CWYW)
· Non-matches, too many matches
· Add some, delete some rearrange them, new journal, Reformat
· Move the References to the right place in the document

Drawbacks of Endnote ----sharing
· It isn't truly network compatible
· Only one person can work/edit/add/delete on a library at one time.
· Other users are blocked from opening the library if it is open in a
read/write capacity
· Get-arounds, have a Read/Write and a Read-only version of the
library, where the Read/Write is copied onto the Read-only automatically
everynight (set up with IT). We keep subfolders appropriately named on our
Lab (L:) drive. In our case everyone has access, but you could restrict the
read/write library access, if you wanted to control/protect the database
from indiscriminate additions or editing.

Additional Notes: In Endnote 4 (current role-out) you need to be in Normal
not Page View to unformat references/citations. To Format/Unformat, you
cannot have Track Changes on either.

I still prefer Endnote 4 to Endnote 5.

The CWYW feature can be confusing and it is difficult to find what
references don't match. If all authors are using Endnote 5 and have
different libraries, there are some advantages, as the entire reference
information is imbedded in the document and you can extract the references
to place them in to your own library (but not easily). IT IS VERY IMPORTANT
TO UNFORMAT REFERENCES BEFORE SWITCHING BETWEEN VERSIONS OF ENDNOTE,
ESPECIALLY BACK AND FORTH. It is also a good practice to unformat when
sharing a paper between authors (at least outside your lab) since you can't
be certain that even if they are using endnote word, which versions are
being used.

Others are FrameMaker, Alpha, StatView, and MATLAB -- although MATLAB

Hi TL Herbert,
I am not using Ovid, but had similar problems with Silverplatter, so
take it as a clue, but it could also be that your case is different.

First check the .txt file with SimpleText or another Texteditor
(Word) that the citations are really there. If not, the problem is
with Ovid (but I assume you have done this already)

More likely, the new version of Ovid slightly changed the way how the
records are separated. If you still have an old .txt file compare it
with a new one again in a text editor and look particularly for
differences between the end of one record and the beginning of the
next. If you can spot the difference keep it in mind and go to
Endnote and select FILE - IMPORT FILTERS - EDIT "<name of your import
filter>" (Make sure you select before the correct import filter). In
the list of the opening window select "RECORD LAYOUT". Then try to
pick the best option which specifically describes the separation
between the records (with some options you might have to enter the
correct text) If it doesn't work right away try other possiblities.
(And keep in mind what has changed between the old and new version
and try to implement it in your choice). Okay I am a little bit vague
here, but without knowledge of the text file it is hard to tell.

Good luck
Ulrich

P.S. If my assumption is correct, Endnote sees only one record (the
first as you say) but not the following, since it could not detect
the record separator and thinks everything belongs to the first
record.

I assume that you will be teaching this in a computer lab? If so, what I
do is to demonstrate (using a data projector) the basics of installing
EndNote, opening an EndNote database and inputting a reference manually
and then get the class to do it for themselves. The follow the same
procedure for importing references and for producing
citations/bibliographies in Word. I normally have an hour and a half to
do this and it's a push to get it all done in time. I don't generally
mention connection files because the majority of ours don't work due to
our system set-up. Also being a Librarian I feel that you can usually
perform a far better search using the specialist interfaces on each
bibliographic database than you can using the EndNote search interface.

The handouts I use cover the information on our Bibliographic Software
pages: http://www.le.ac.uk/li/sources/subject3/biblio/intro.html

I'm hoping in future to offer two sessions, a basic and an advanced
because of the amount of information that can be covered when teaching
the software. I only started teaching it last year so we're building up
the amount of sessions as we've found there's been a lot of interest in
them.

The main problems I've had when teaching are technical ones with the
set-up of the computers so I would strongly advise you to check that
EndNote works okay in the labs you'll be teaching in. (I hasten to add
that the problems are with our network set-up rather than with EndNote
itself!).

For publicising the class I've usually hyped the angle of it allowing
you to create bibliographies instantly and the cite while you write
feature, as I've found this seems to attract the interest of the
students/academics who haven't heard of the software before.

Hope that helps

RE: Closing up numbering of references

Author: Wiedemann, Leanne Posted: Wed, 23 Jan 2002 11:00:40 -0600

yes and no. You can import all the references into a new library and it
will fill in the holes. You cannot manipulate the record numbers yourself,
they are hard wired to prevent any future incorrect reference being inserted
in error.

I have an endnote bibliography in the making. While gathering my sources I
have had occasion to delete many of them. This has left 'holes' in the
numbering system used inside of endnote. It would be nice if I could,
so-to-speak, 'compact' my bibliography - in the sense of filling in all the
now missing numbers.

For example, inside of my endnote library my references are numbered
1-10, 12, 14-22, 25, 27-45, etc., etc.

I would like them to be numbered, for example, 1-40.

Can that be done?

Or, if I can't change the numbering of references already entered, is it
possible to say to endnote: I want the next reference to be numbered 11;
then 13; then 23-24; and so on. Is that possible?

A big thanks in advance,

This sounds like a Word issue - your colleague has the Word codes revealed.
These can be 'toggled' on and off by holding down the Alt key and pressing

Dear Tanya
I work at a medical library and Endnote is one of our most popular classes.
We always use classrooms with computers so everyone has their own computer.
I have made some own materials(in Swedish) which basically follows the
headlines like file, edit, references. We teach at a basic level I think.
But the most difficult is to not get involved with to much. I always want
to show some extra things with the system. They attend my class to learn
about the system so they can use it. The length of the classes is about 3
hours(3x45 min)

Re: Closing up numbering of references

Author: Labores Posted: Wed, 23 Jan 2002 13:04:57 -0700

You CAN renumber those references BUT if you do - you'll have to reformat
any pending documents referring to them or else you'll get an error.

Export them into a new .enl data file; delete them from the old file and
then re-
import them.

G'day Tanya
I have found through trial and error that a 2 hour hands on session in a lab
is plenty to start with. We run classes usually with 2 trainers and anything
up to 20 academics and research students, though 5-10 would be ideal.

Typical outline is:
1. overview of EndNote and where to get it. We don't practice installing it
because it is already on the lab pcs

2. we show them the sample Paleo.enl library to demonstrate the structure of
a record, sorting, searching, etc.

3. we get them to create an EndNote library and manually input a few
records. This usually leads to discussion about which fields to use,
importance of capitalisation, record types and citation styles.

4. next they open an MS Word document (or create one) and practice inserting
citations and formatting. (We are usually using EN 4) This leads to more
discussion about citation styles and how to find one which suits their needs
(Style manager, searching for styles on websites (ours, EndNote's and
others), copying to the correct location and activating)

5. depending on the size and interest / energy level of the class we
introduce the concept of adding records directly from library databases -
filtering, connecting and direct download a la Web of Science. By this stage
we've usually run out of time / energy so I demonstrate the options and
offer them an advanced class which gives them hands on practice. Many users
find this is sufficient to get them started

I used to reverse steps 4 and 5, but I now think it is important for my
clients to see the possibilities of linking with their word processor early
in the session as this is really the whole point of using EndNote. Some
people reach information overload early on and they can always pick up the
downloading stuff later.

As far as publicity goes, I have mainly used email, with links to the
Endnote site and our own Endnote site. For a long time I had very little
response. Then one day I had 60 replies in 24 hours! I think timing was
important here, as the academics had just finished their marking and were
starting to think again about their own research. I have also started using
this as a way of publicising Web of Science as the 2 are so closely
integrated. Many of our Business staff quite reasonably assume that a
product called Web of SCIENCE is not for them (are you listening ISI?)

In an e-mail some months ago now he was very encouraging about plans for
EndNote for X, but I've heard nothing new since then. Perhaps try writing

Ik weet niet of het zo is, maar ik ben bang dat je daarvoor intieme kennis
van Endnote moet hebben die wij niet bezitten. Een export format is denk ik
met veel minder inspanning te mekne en voldoet net zo goed. Wie toch
directer
wil werken kan via de z39.50 route met de agralin-bestanden werken. Al
zouden
we misschien daarover wat meer info moeten verspreiden.

RE: Closing up numbering of references

Author: Jonathan Gold Posted: Thu, 24 Jan 2002 14:48:31 -0800

Thanks to everyone who responded. On second thought, I realize that
RE-numbering will NOT work, since we have hardcoded these numbers onto the
actual documents in our 'real' library. But the other idea would still be
good: is it possible, while creating a NEW reference, to ask EndNote to
number it with one of the MISSING numbers?

TIA,

Jonathan Gold

Re: Teaching Tips for Physicians?

Author: John East Posted: Fri, 25 Jan 2002 10:07:32 +1000

Abbreviations of journal titles are one of the problems faced by medical
researchers when using EndNote. We have a rather lengthy handout on this
subject which we use in our training courses. There is an HTML version on
our website at:
http://www.library.uq.edu.au/endnote/medical_journal_titles_5.html

That handout is designed for EndNote 5 users. If you are using EndNote 4,
note that the medical terms list supplied with the Windows version of the
software is not complete. The list supplied with
the Mac version is complete. If you are using EndNote 4 on a Windows
machine, you can download the complete medical terms list from our website
at:

Dear Maria,

Thank you for the information. It seems many
responses are putting the classes between 2 and 3
hours. I don't know the level of computer literacy of
the faculty, but probably basic would do them just
fine. I'll keep your advice in mind & not wear them
out with all the bells and whistles!

Have a great weekend,

Tanya

Bob,

It probably depends on the style; I believe APA suggests: "1843/1973".

Author: Wiedemann, Leanne Posted: Fri, 25 Jan 2002 11:03:50 -0600

You are going to use the Add-in format (from the endnote menu) or tools
format (in word), not the Paper format (endnote) method. I don't have a hard
copy of the manual to point you to the correct section, but look for Add-in.

This is a common source of confusion. You are reading the information in
Chapter 11 of the manual ("Citing References and Generating Bibliographies
without the Add-in"). But if you have a recent version of Word, you do not
have the option of working without the Add-in. So you need to refer to
Chapter 10 ("Citing References and Generating Bibliographies Using Word or
Word Perfect"), and specifically the section on "Formatting Master
Documents" (p. 206 in the Windows edition of the EndNote 4 manual).

Re: citing an old publication which has been reprinted

Author: Yoav Mazeh Posted: Sat, 26 Jan 2002 18:19:27 -0000

Hi Bob,

How you want it to appear depends on your style.
However, as for EndNote, you can add a field for Second Publication in your
Preferences, Reference Type.
And then in your Style add just after Year: |*reprinted*Second Publication|
(* stands for Alt Ctrl Space).

Hope this helps

But if I have a journal ariticle, the short title includes the pages e.g. p.

Re: upgrading

You should have no problem...I use endnote 3.1 with both OS 9 and OS X.

Even the most current version of endnote, however, is NOT compatible with
the newest Microsoft Office for the mac (OS X native). So, if endnote is
important to you and you want to use OS X, don't upgrade your MS Office to
the OS X-native offering. Anyone know when endnote will come out with an OS
X-native version...and if that will be compatible with the new MS Office X?

Hi Constance,
not to my knowledge. I am using OS 9.1 with EN 4.0.1 with no problems
so far. The computer is an upgraded PowerMac 7600 running with a
G3-400MHz card. Although I have to add, that I rarely use Endnote
together with Word since I still prefer the good old Wordperfect 3.
BTW if a are going to buy a new ibook, it will run OS X by default
(yes you can switch to OS 9), just to bring this to your attention -
and EN4 and OS X is another story I cannot help (no OS X yet).

Good luck
Ulrich

Re: Change Reference Type En Mass?

Author: Peter A Nelson Posted: Thu, 31 Jan 2002 21:56:43 -0500

You might experiment with exporting a small portion of your library into
Excel, and then importing the Excel file--saved maybe as tab delimited
text--back into EndNote. Maybe you'll have the option of specifying a
different reference type. You may also be able to eliminate the "book
section" and "book" options from your set-up and force EndNote to categorize
all listings as journal articles.

Of course, play around with this using small, trial files--protect the
original library carefully! Good luck.

There seems to be quite a problem. I contacted Endote support and the
silverplatter support team of our local silverplatter server on taht point.
The last one tried to configure new connection files for me which quit with
error messages. In my case journal data and other data (pagenr./year and
other) is completely put in the notes field...

The endote guy had several questions, wanted to have some log files and now
I haven't heard of him for two-three weeks by now, even not though I did ask
him last week why I haven't heard of him...

I do this workaround: I go to the webbased Interface (WebSpirs) and download
hole file (ask me for settings if you need to know) and import it via import
filter into endnote which works fine. In between I rename downloaded file to
the extension *.doc, so I can work over the items found within Word. As I
got many German hits I can easily switch vowels to Umlauts (o to ö) I have
already made makros for that to switch all 'fur' to 'für' all 'Munich' to
'München' and so on.

Bye, Yours

re: Change Reference Type En Mass?

Author: Duncan Rand Posted: Fri, 01 Feb 2002 09:52:25 +0000

Greg

One way to do this might be to select the Output Style 'Endnote export'
and export all the references to a text file. Use the 'find & replace
all' option of a text editor such as notepad to replace all instances of

%0 Book

with

%0 Journal Article

Then import the file into a new library using the 'Endnote import'
option.

If you had a mixture of books, book sections and journal articles
wrongly classified then I think if you deleted all the lines beginning
with %0 from the text file Endnote would classify each reference
according to the tags present (see p133 of the Endnote 5 manual for PC).

Greg,

Use "Change Field" rather than "Change Text".

"Reference Type" is listed there.

Pull up all the references you want to change and go for it.

RE: Silverplatter PsychInfo filter problem

Author: J TenHaaf Posted: Fri, 01 Feb 2002 12:22:15 +0100

Daniel,

We developed a filter for PsycInfo for our customers. You can find it at:
http://www.ub.unimaas.nl/endnote/index_uk.htm
together with some other filters of interest for our clients

Hope it helps,

Hi -

I notified EndNote technical support that the filter for SilverPlatter
PsychInfo was defective concerning sections of an edited book. A quick look
at the filter shows that it is just plain wrong. At a minimum several lines
are missing. I was thanked and told that the proper folks would be told.
However, it has been 2 weeks and there is no new filter so I assume that
this is a *slow* process.

Before I go and fix the thing myself, I wonder if anyone else had
already done this?

Thanks

RE: Change Reference Type En Mass?

Author: J TenHaaf Posted: Fri, 01 Feb 2002 12:35:24 +0100

Greg,

1) Make a copy of your library (before every major and/or unique operation
one should do that)
2) Select output style "endnote export" from the output style manager
3) Select the refs you want to convert
4) Copy FORMATTED (CTRL-K) these refs
5) Paste the selection in a (simple) word processor
6) global change every "%0 Book Section" occasion to "%0 Journal Article"
7) save the file as plain text
8a) delete the original refs from your endnote library
8) import the text file using the Endnote Import filter (NOT the Endnote
Libary filter), its a filter that is available under import option by
default.

This should do, however keep in mind: be careful in case you use the
automatic endnote reference numbers for one or other purpose, these will
change accordingly.

I have a problem that I hope is not unique:

I have a large library that containts several thousand references that are
for journal articles. However, they are listed as "book section" or "book"
for reference type.

I would like to change them en masse, all at once, from Book Section to
Journal Article.

I can isolate the references in question using the search functions. I
looked into using the "change field" command but that does not seem to
allow me to change the "reference type" (it is not really listed as a
field). (There is a "type of work" field but that does not do it)

Any suggestions would be much appreciated! Changing them all by hand one
at a time is currently my only option and that will take some time...

Thanks
