Richard,
Has the reference been created / added to a library with a "save" yet?
Otherwise you are working "in the vapor" ... Windows won't let you
create a link to a non-existent file. As far as Windows is concerned,
the PDF is 'real'; the reference is still 'virtual' until it is saved.
It will let you drag and drop the image on the reference as you build it
because at that point the reference is being created as an object, which
is real. But the PDF link, I think, has to be associated with a file
that is on your hard drive or wherever else it is stored.

I am using Endnote X for Windows at work.
Some PDF's will not allow me to drag them to the reference and attach
them. I get an error saying "cannot create link." I have tried manually
attaching them (via the menus) and get the same thing. The original is
on my hard drive so it's not a locked volume, and even if I change the
location of the PDF it doesn't change. I have tried different copies of
these certain PDF's and it still doesn't work.
The PDF's work well in Acrobat reader, and I can put them in the image
field like in Endnote 9 without difficulty.
Anyone have any thoughts?
