Here's how I handle "science paper" endnotes right now (FM 6, Win2k): 
(1) Type, type, type until I need to cite a reference; 
(2) Type the bibliographic information either in a "Bibliography" section at the end of the document or in a separate Bibliography document that acts as a chapter in a book (my dissertation, for example); 
(3) Give that bibliography paragraph an auto-numbered tag called Reference; 
(4) Cross-reference the Reference paragraph in the text (paranumonly) and format the cross-reference text appropriately (in [] brackets, usually); 
(5) Voila, scientific endnotes... 

This approach is adequate, but it does necessitate a minor hassle that I'd love to eliminate: 

When I'm done writing, it often happens that I'll add new citations in-between earlier ones. I'm writing along, in a groove, so I don't necessarily take the time to insert the biblio-information "Reference" paragraph where it belongs in the Bibliography section--I just add it at the end and move on. Plus, routine editing also tends to move the cross-references around--they still refer to the correct bibliography paragraph, but the autonumbering is governed by the order of the Reference paragraphs, not the order the citations appear in the main text. 

Bibliographies (in my field) always list references in the same order they appear in the text (as opposed to alphabetical or somesuch). 

So when all is said-and-done, I must search through my text for all [#] cross-references, then manually rearrange the Reference paragraphs in the Bibliography to make the cross-reference numbers in the text become [1], [2], ... sequential. 

So, first, do any of the FrameMasters out there have a better way of doing what I'm doing? 

Assuming the answer is "Not really," then is there a way to generate a temporary list of my cross-references--so they show up in the same order that appear in the text? Such a generated list would help me rearrange the Reference paragraphs to achieve the desired, sequential numbering. 

Any suggestions would be much appreciated. &y
