RE: Copy the RefID into another field
Author: Linda K    Posted: Fri, 02 Dec 2005 16:30:00 -0800

If I understand the problem, you need to export your database and then
import it into a new one that is structured with author-date, then
allocate the old RefID to one of the user-defined fields. DO NOT add the
old RefID to "keywords". When they changed how 10+ does searching, it
started looking for dates in the keywords field--a real pain in the
wazoo!!

Caution: I seem to be coming down with something so I may be
hallucinating. <g>

Subject: <RefMan> Copy the RefID into another field


Hi

I want to switch from numerical RefID to the AuthorYear principle, but I
have to keep the number as many articles are already filed with the
RefID and I don't want to change that at the moment.
I found the "Move Field", but I can't do it as I can't delete the RefID
("Copy Field" only copies one value into all records). Any ideas on how
I can copy the field values?

Product Reviews

"Overall, Reference Manager is an excellent citation manager. It is simple enough to be used out of the box and not too intimidating for a new user. Equally, though, it contains enough powerful features and customisation to satisfy advanced users."
Information World Review

"It's highly recommended for anyone needing a powerful reference tool."
