I regularly download papers from a Wiley publishing site, the american
journal of physical anthropology. Recently they have added the ability
to download citations in either an endnote or a text format. I have
modified the endnote and the closest filter for text, a Cochrane-Wiley
filter recently posted on the Ref Man web site, and can make both work
(after a fashion), although the Cochrane-Wiley filter is more easily
modified.
However, on this site authors are listed in the order of "full first
name then middle name initials period then surname" with a comma
separating authors. e.g. AU: Keith Condon, Douglas K. Charles, James M.
Cheverud, Jane E. Buikstra. Although I am able to extract an author
list separated by semi-colons and import it, I can find no way to
reverse the name order to conform to the ref man requirement of
"surname,initial.initial.". The best that I can do is "Keith,Condon;
Douglas,K.Charles; James,M.Cheverud; Jane, E.Buikstra" instead of the
required "Condon,K.; Charles,D.K.; Cheverud,J.E.; Buikstra,J.E." Is
there some function that I am missing within the import filter editor
that will allow me to do this? if not, can anyone please suggest what
can be done.

This problem has been found by quite a few people - and has come up on
the list before. It is supposed to have been fixed by the latest update
(RM11.01) - but as it seems to be an erratic problem I don't know if it
has been fixed!
We never found a work-around - apart from being careful and backing up
regularly. It only seems noticeable in long documents which are being
edited several times. (and generally seems to occur when you have a
deadline and are just doing the last few alterations - or is that just
Murphy's Law in
operation?!?)
Hopefully the revised version of RM will fix it
