Can someone help me. I have a recurring situation with formatting bibliography entries, such as when I format publisher information. For instance, I would like publisher info to appear as follows: COMPLETE: Chicago: University of Chicago Press. PUBLISHER ONLY: University of Chicago Press. CITY ONLY: Chicago. NEITHER: (nothing) So my format looks like this: City|:.Publisher|. That is: (1) a vertical bar before the colon to separate the colon from the city, (2) a hard space after the colon to attach it to the Publisher, (3) and a vertical bar before the final period so that when the Publisher is omitted, the period will print with the City. The problem is that when nothing is present, the final vertical bar tells Endnote to print a period even if there is no City. So I get dangling periods whereever there is no known publisher information. What I want, I think, is for the final period to be dependent on any fields that preceed it. Does anyone have suggestions of how to do this? John Bealle cccbbs!john.bealle@uceng.uc.edu
