Import filter: importing content of one data line into two fields?
| Import filter: importing content of one data line into two fields? |

If I have a text file of references each of which includes a tagged
line of the form
YR: 1987
how do I code an import filter so that 1987 will get
imported/inserted into both the Year and the Date fields?
[Apologies if this is already answered somewhere; I'm still digging
my way through the FAQs and other documentation]
[And this is in Mac OS 9.2, EndNote 5.0 -- I *will* be upgrading
both of those shortly]

The filter will only map the YR: field to a single field in EndNote.
There is a complicated workaround--
Import the references into a temporary library, with the YR: mapped to the
Year field.
Then edit the EndNote Export output style so that the Year field is exported
twice, once with the tag %D and once with the tag %8.
Export all the references in your temporary library using this modified
output style. Save them as a text file.
Then reimport them into another library, using EndNote Import as your import
option.
They should now have the year in both the Year and Date fields. Transfer the
references to your permanent library.
