Sorry I missed that.  At least this option means you only have to do
the editing in the source document, not in the formatted one, but
to be greedy about it, it would be much nicer if you could just add a flag
to the normal citation that would tell endnote to take a temporary
citation like [Jones, 1981 !211] and know that the ! meant to format
it as "Jones, Smith, and Yorky (1981)".  The present system requires a
lot of work that Endnote is so good at eliminating, i.e. looking up
full lists of authors, remembering the rules for handling multiple
authors, and typing the correct information into the paper.
