problem with prefixes
Author: Sven Trelle    Posted: Fri, 07 Mar 2003 20:36:18 +0000
dear list members, I have two problems with prefixes in an In-Text-Citation (EndNote 6; Word 2000). I have my own Style (In-Text-Citation: (Author Year); multiple citations are sorted by Year + Author; multiple citation separator: ; ) < I hope it is not too confusing > The first problem: The formatted citation should look as follows: Text... (Oxman et al. 1995; s. als Beispiele Rosser & Palmer 1993; Cameron et al. 1999). I tried the following unformatted In-text-Citations: {Oxman, 1995 #1000;s. als Beispiele \Rosser, 1993 #995;Cameron, 1999 #37} result after formatting: (s. als Beispiele Rosser & Palmer 1993; Oxman et al. 1995; Cameron et al. 1999) {Oxman, 1995 #1000}{s. als Beispiele \Rosser, 1993 #995;Cameron, 1999 #37} result after formatting: (s. als Beispiele Rosser & Palmer 1993; Oxman et al. 1995; Cameron et al. 1999) {Oxman, 1995 #1000} {s. als Beispiele \Rosser, 1993 #995;Cameron, 1999 #37} result after formatting: (Oxman et al. 1995) (s. als Beispiele Rosser & Palmer 1993; Cameron et al. 1999) {Oxman, 1995 #1000 s. als Beispiele \Rosser, 1993 #995;Cameron, 1999 #37} result after formatting: (Oxman, 1995 #1000 s. als Beispiele Rosser & Palmer 1993; Cameron et al. 1999) The second problem: The formatted citation should look as follows: Text ... (s. exemplarisch Burton & Blair 1991; zur Übersicht s. Stone et al. 2000 und Schwarz & Oyserman 2001) I tried (among several other options): {s. exemplarisch \Burton, 1991 # 1103;zur Übersicht s. \Stone, 2000 #1112 und \Schwarz, 2001 #1347} result after formatting: (s. exemplarisch Burton & Blair 1991; zur Übersicht s. Stone et al. 2000 und ) Any suggestions? Probably there is no possibility to solve the problems because of the multiple-citations-preferences and I have to edit the citations manually. nevertheless thank you for your help in advance Sven Trelle

Complex citations (along with diacriticals) seem to be my bane in Endnote. In the process of entering the readings from a course I took several years ago, for instance, how do I get something approximating the following? Barthes, Roland, "The Death of the Author," in Barthes, Image, Music, Text, essays selected and trans. by Stephen Heath, 1977. That is to say, how do I get Barthes to show up as author of both the essay and the book, and Heath to show up selecting and translating the essays? (I generally output using Chicago 14th A, making bibliographies that I can then fine-tune in Word, but while I can type funny characters like ^ and * to remind myself to insert diacriticals, I would really prefer to have authors, editors, and translators (not to mention compilers, "with," and "as told to") appear properly from the start.

Sven, Despite the german context, I think I can figure out what you are asking for, smile. In the olden days, before endnote was so clever, and didn't really have a way to add prefix, suffix easily, I used to handle these things so. I would edit my style so that it did not insert the ( ) around the inserted citations, Instead I would manually add them. So it would be ({Oxman, 1995 #1000}; s. als Beispiel {Rosser, 1993 #995; Cameron, 1999 #37}) It makes it a little less automatic, but it works perfectly, and you have to get used to it. It is probably only worth it, if you do it alot. You might also try putting a breaking space or some unique replaceable (even hidden) symbol between the } { and that might separate them, keep the order, (but you will probably end up with )( between them, but it might look okay too?
