We have a free import module for EndNote PC called UserLink.  It allows you
to set up the delimiters and order of data in the import file itself.  Mail
me directly for a copy: we will put it on the ftp site when we can.  A
version of UserLink will probably be supported in the next version of
EndNote Mac as well.

utilities

ftp to   magic.ucsb.edu    and login as anonymous.  Type  cd /pub/endnote
to find the EndNote stuff, or use TurboGopher.

This is a humanities style that we have not done yet.  There are some
workarounds with Copy Formatted: I will send them individually and post them
when I can.

Not yet -- I'm looking for volunteers.
