Could you give an example of the format you use to insert text at the
start of a reference? I'm using the plug-in module with Word 5.1,
and just spent a few minutes experimenting with backslashes in what
seemed like the likely places in a citation. Endnote always flagged
the altered citation as not matching any in the database, so I'm clearly
not doing this correctly. Some of the formats I tried are (using
square brackets in place of the citation markers inserted by Endnote):
[\for example, Sverdrup, 1953 #810]
[\for example, \ Sverdrup, 1953 #810]
[for example, \ Sverdrup, 1953 #810]
In each case, I tried inserting and removing spaces on either side of
the backslash, all to no avail. What am I doing wrong?
Cheers,
Joe Montoya
