Hi there!
I am facing an unexpected problem with EndNote. The problem occurs whether 
I use the plug-in module (v. 1.0) for Word (v. 5.1a), or the 
application (1.2) and Word.

I want to add some text after they year, in many of my in-text citations. 
I know how to do this, and never had problems doing it before. 
However, I never tried to change text attributes of such text before.
This time, the text that I want to put there consists of species names. 
Of course, the first time a species is mentioned in the paper, I want 
to include the latin name as well. Thus my citations look like this 
(I used square brackets to indicate the PIMÕs markers):

[Melchiors, 1984 #2442, black-tailed deer, Odocoileus hemionus]

Before formatting my document, I formatted the latin name in italics. 
As indicated in the manual, changes to citations should be done to 
unformatted citations if one does not want to loose
information if the paper needs to be unformatted or reformatted 
before final printing.

The problem is that the italics are gone after I format the bibliography, 
forcing me to search for all species names and add italics. Not only is 
this a pain, but I risk having to redo it again if I need to reformat 
my bibliography later on.

Is there something I missed? Do later versions of EndNote & the PIM 
fix this?

Thanks in advance, 
Denis Chabot
