I subscribe to Reference Update, which will write a file in Medline format.
I wrote a short BASIC program that converts the file into Refer format for
loading into EndNote.  I use a MAC, but it is much easier to program the
IBM.  Hence, I have Reference Update write a file on the MAC.  I then
use the standard Apple File Exchange to transfer the file to an
IBM-formatted diskette.  I put the diskette in the IBM, run my little
BASIC program, bring the diskette back to the MAC and use Apple File
Exchange to transfer the file onto the MAC, then import the references
into EndNote.  It takes about 5 minutes altogether.  I'll be happy to send
the program to anyone interested in it (e-mail me at blubaugh@cc.usu.edu).
With a little modification, one could use it to convert other formats as
well.
