Dear John,
Hi. I think the problem is how the database was designed. It lumps the
journal name the volume and issue into one field, namely the JN field .
This is sloppy design of records and the database provider is NOT
providing a quality record.
One idea is to load the records from a bibliographic library database
instead of the table of contents database These databases are much more
compatiable with Reference Manager. I think there is a database called
sociological abstracts or something similar.

Not sure why, but this listserv reformatted the import record examples I
included with my post. Here they are again. Hope the don't get
reformatted again but they may. Suffice to say, the records are well
formatted in real life.
Basically, there are two records in the table of contents data to
import. One is the table of contents for an issue of Sociological
Methods and Research, and the other is for The American Political
Science Review.
The problematic feature of these records that I do not know how to deal
with is that each article in the journal issue lists only the author,
title, and pages, and not the journal name, volume, and issue. The
latter has to be remembered from one article to the next.
Can this be done in RM 11.0? THat's my question.
