Hi, I had a similar experience. After months of "trial and tribulations", someone at Ovid (Silverplatter) figured out that it required three stars after the input of the database abbreviation rather than two. I now have access to Psychlit and medline; however, only journal articles are downloaded correctly. Bookchapters etc are really screwed up. Any suggestions?
