Subject: Journal abbreviations and articles downloaded from PubMed

Does anyone have any tips on how they keep their journal abbreviations sorted when using RefMan with pubmed? I found that I couldn't define styles to use either full length or abbreviated journal names. I managed to solve that by activating 'term manager', tidying up all the abbreviations that were in use by downloading the list of medical journals (using the 'copy preriodicals' function of term manager). I then replaced all my old ones using the 'Global edit' function in term manager. So now my database is perfect, and the term manger contains 2 versions of each journal name (full & Standard abbreviation) ie. American Journal of Hematology Am.J.Hematol. Because both are entered in the 'synonyms' of 'Term manager' it means I can display the bibliography as either full journal names or abbreviated versions. Which is great. The problem I have is that whenever I download an article from pubmed (using the send to text file option), The abbreviations pub med uses are different, and not recognised as the same... ie. Am J Hematol. So the new articles i download are not automatically recognised by term manager and can not be displayed as 'full journal name' as pub med uses different terms. I realise I could add in the PubMed definition to one of the user defined fields of term manager, butI'd rather find a way to make reference manager compatible with pubmed. Does anyone know of a ready made database of medical jorunal terms I could upload? Cheers, J
