RE: Convert Endnote to Refman & vice versa
Author: Norman Sandfield    Posted: Fri, 03 Mar 2006 16:45:00 -0800

To all:

I have spent months and dollars to try to get a smooth transition
from EndNote 6 to RefMan11. I have 5,000+ records. The
non-editable automated mapping drops parentheses and some hyphens in the
author fields, and some information in the pages field(s) if you have
more than simple numbers in it. I have not proofed other fields as
those two are significant enough to turn me off to the process, and to
drop RefMan again! Even though I would REALLY like to be able to use
its Web Publisher feature!

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."
