Converting from EndNote (Mac) to ProCite (windows)

all -- I've searched archives but have not found an answer to converting files in this direction -- from EndNote in Mac version to ProCite in Windows. (I've done the other way around using export file in RIS format.) any suggestions? thanks, Karen

I don't have an answer to your questions, just some thoughts. Can Mac EndNote export a database into Win EndNote format? Win ProCite can read in Win EndNote. This site may provide a pass-through but I can't really tell: http://www.cas.org/Support/scholar.html This site has a lot of info on conversions: http://www.library.uq.edu.au/endnote/new_in_endnote8.html Might be someone you could ask... they have a "feedback" link in the bottom right corner of the next page which leads to a form. Next to the form is "Ask a Cybrarian". This part of the same site seems to be saying that any version of Pc or Mac EndNote database can be opened on either platform (http://www.library.uq.edu.au/endnote/technical.html ), so if you have access to Win EndNote then you could open the Mac EndNote db and convert it to Win EndNote and then we're back to "Win ProCite can read in Win EndNote." Well, good luck. Laurel -----Original Message----- From: PROCITE The Personal Bibliographic Software Discussion List "mailto:PROCITE" On Behalf Of Karen A.

If you have access to Mac ProCite you can export from EndNote in RIS format (File/Export/Text only) and then import into ProCite (Tools/Import Text File) then Win ProCite can open Mac ProCite databases. You would need the RIS Mac input filter which I will send to anyone who requests it. At 5:03 PM -0400 17/10/05, Karen A.

Thanks to everyone who responded to my question (message below). I thought I would report on what we ended up doing, in case this helps anyone else: -- I happened to have an old version of EndNote (version 5) for Windows and installed that on my computer -- my colleague with the Mac then created an export file using RIS (saving as text) -- I opened EndNote and then imported the text file. -- once saved as an EndNote Windows database I was able to open it in ProCite Windows Not sure what we would have tried next if I had not remember my still-in-the-plastic free copy of EndNote5. thanks again, Karen > > -----Original Message----- > From: PROCITE The Personal Bibliographic Software Discussion List > "mailto:PROCITE" On Behalf Of Karen A.
