How to Make EndNote Format a Field with All Caps or Small Caps
(1/17/94)

EndNote and EndNote Plus do not have a specific way of formatting fields
with all letters capitalized (All Caps) or all letters capitalized with the
initial letters in a larger font size (Small Caps).

This is the style of some journals, including British Journal of
Pharmacology, Progress in Neurobiology, etc.  Many journals that print with
this style, including Genetics, do NOT require manuscripts to be sent with
this formatting, as they will typset the articles anyway.  Before
proceeding, please check the Instructions for Contributors or contact the
publisher to see if they will typset the articles themselves, or require
camera-ready copy (with All Caps or Small Caps).

We have a workaround for automatic capitalization if you have a
wordprocessing program, such as Microsoft Word or MacWrite Pro, that can
search for one text style and replace it with a capitalized text style.

You have to set your field to a special text style, and then replace it with
the Caps text style (our example will make it work for All Caps).

1.      Open the EndNote program and Edit your bibliographic Style.

2.      Select the field that you want to set to All Caps and go to the
TextStyles menu, then choose Shadow from the Styles menu.  This will make
your field name kind of ugly, but distinctive.

3.      Repeat this for the field (Author, for example) in all the
specifications in that style.

4.      Save the style with a new name (like APA All Caps or APA.ALC).

5.      In the EndNote program or in the EndNote Plug-In Module, reformat
your paper with this new style.  The bibliography will have the distinctive
Shadow style for the field that you specified.

6.      In your word processor, select the option to search and replace
text.

7.      Specify that you want to search for Shadow character style.  In Mac
Microsoft Word 5, you do this by clicking on the Format menu in the Replace
dialog, choosing Character, and marking the Shadow item with an X.  For all
other word processors, follow the instructions in the manual.

8.      Set it to replace with the All Caps character style.  In Mac Word 5,
do this by clicking on the Format menu in the Replace dialog, choosing
Character, and marking the All Caps item with an X.  You will also have to
turn off the Shadow item, so click on it until it is an empty box (not a
grey box).  For all other word processors, follow the instructions in the
manual.

9.      Click on the Replace All button in the Replace dialog, and it will
change the whole bibliography.

If you are using the EndNote Plug-In Module, and you reformat the paper
later, it will give you a message about changes in the bibliograpy.  Click
the Continue button, and replace the shadow textstyle again by starting the
process above at number 6.
