I would be thrilled if EndNote did what Marc describes, but on the
version I use at work, only the first letter of the author's name gets
used for the selection process.  Typeing "go" moves me to "Ott" not
"gorenstein".  Has this been updated (from EndNote Plus 1.0 for DOS)?

The mark/unmark feature would be terrific.  Yes yes yes! 

By the way, I noticed (but missed) an earlier thread about a Windows
version of EndNote.  Could somebody update me?

Thanks,
