Irminger asked:
>I would like to replace a word which occurs hundreds of times in my Endnote
>database. How can I do that? Can I use MS Word to replace the word?
Griswold replied with a relatively complicated procedure requiring one to
export the references to MS Word or another word processor and then
reimport the references to EndNote.  Besides being a pain, this loses the
original reference numbering, which is a problem for those folks (like
myself) who use the reference number to file hard copies of the articles in
the reference library.

my point is this:
Global Editing features should be high on the wish list for future editions
of EndNote, as well as a menu listing of key-words.  (These features are
part of Reference Manager, which I used previously.  Although I'm satisfied
with EndNote in most ways, these are the two features that I miss the most
after switching from Reference Manager to EndNote.)
