Dear Colleagues,
(I recently 'came back' to Refman (I am using v. 10) from another
bibliographic software package:)
I have a database with some 20,000 records (imoprted from different
databases) with some 4,000 duplicate identified using RefMan's batch
duplicate detection alogorithm. I seem to remember that there was an
option on RefMan whereby all duplicates (in my example: 2000 records)
can be marked and then deleted 'in one go'. I can't seem to find that
option now. I am going through the list, marking the duplicates
individually and then deleting them in groups.
There must be a faster way. Can somebody help please?
With many thanks in advance, and best wishes from sunny London,
Reinhard
