Re: Move keywords to another field
Author: Woei-Nan Bair    Posted: Fri, 16 Dec 2005 16:35:00 -0800

Hi,

This is how I did it (I am using version 10).

First, export citations to txt file

Reference / Export /

Specify the output txt file name
Choose RIS as your ourput format
Choose what you want to export under / References Options

Second, edit the txt file

Open the txt file that you just exported to
Edit / Replace
Find KW
Replace with the name for the field you want to move to
I replace KW with L4
I don't know where to find the field name. My quick trick is to export
one citation and check the field name.
Third, import the modifed txt to database

Reference / Import text files
Specify database name
Choose RIS as filter
Other steps are self-explanatory

If you want to keep the information in the new field, make sure that
field is checked (for all the reference types in the txt file) before
importing
This is how: Tool / Field and Type edit, the new field should be checked
with "I"

How do I move the keywords to another field, for all records in my

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."
