QUED/M is a full-featured text editor with macro capabilities.  I use it
anytime I need to convert bibliographica record to Refer format for import
into EndNote.  I have written crude macros which effectively convert
records from HOLLIS (Harvard); from NOTIS (such as we use here at Cornell
U.) and MARC records from RLIN (though this is quite a challenge, what with
all the fixed fields, variable fields and all the sub-fields to deal with).
 I am also writing a marco to clean up records from Silver Platter products
(such as the MLA bibliography).  Silver Platter treats all of its refs. as
journal articles, so when importing into EndNote they are all assigned the
Journal Article reference type (no fault of EndNote, since all of the
relevant info is contained in the notes field).
Qued/M can be used to place info. from the notes field into the proper
fields for the Edited Book, Conference Proceedings and Thesis reference
types.

QUED/M 2.5 is available from Nisus Software, Inc.  PO Box 1300, Solana
Beach, CA 92075. (800)922-2993.  I bought my copy through MacConnection or
MacWarehouse (I can't remember which).  I think the price now is around
$100.
