Editing PubMed connection file
Author: Patrick J    Posted: Fri, 4 May 2007 16:13:44 -0400
(Using EndNote X on Windows XP) My PubMed connection file changes JAMA to Jama, BMJ to Bmj, etc. In my main EndNote Preferences ---> Change case, I have already added JAMA, BMJ, PNAS, etc. to the Do not change case to the following terms list. But that isn't helping. I think the problem is occurring with the PubMed connection file. When I do a search from EndNote and look at the hits, it lists Jama in the journal field. I went to edit the connection file, where in the Field editing box you can instruct the connection file on how you want it to handle capitalization. But I was surprised to see that there isn't a journal field, and I couldn't figure out which of those listed corresponds to the journal field. Can anyone help? Sorry if this has been asked before. I tried the Email list archive but didn't come up with anything. Thanks, Pat Skerrett

The setting should be: Do Not Lowercase John East University of Queensland Library Email: "john.east"

It really doesn't matter as long as you correctly set up and utilize the Journal Abbreviation Terms list, which has been discussed extensively in the archives and instructions are also on the Endnote website: http://www.endnote.com/support/faqs/Styles/faq5.asp and is discussed in detail in the PDF manual that is installed with the program.
