Dear Endnote users, I was adding some references to my database today and now I have BIG problems!!! I hope someone out there can help. If it makes any difference I'm using Endnote plus on a PC. I started off this morning with a database containing 502 references. I hope this isn't relevant but today I built a QuickFind Index on the Key Words field -0 there was no quick find index before. Anyway I added another 9 references with no problem then I'd just done a control-n to start editing number 512 and then I changed my mind without typing anything and did a control-w to close the reference. I now have a blank line above my first reference execept for the record number which is >500,000! I tried to delete this reference but all I get is an Out of memory message. If I open this reference and try to edit it and then do a control-w I get a message saying "can't add more than 32712 (or whatever that magic number is) references to a library" I tried copying all the other references into a new library and that worked OK except that in the new library all my record numbers are wrong (of course) as they are copied in in alphabetical order. I tried to do a sort on the refernce numbers in the database before copying to see if that would help but I got out of memory again. Anythig else anyone can think of that I can try? My Ph.D. thesis is depending on this so please help if you can - I really don't fancy going back over each chapter editing the new reference numbers in. PLEASE HELP!!!!!
