As posted recently (I think), there is no real limit on the number of journal
abbreviations, other than size of the file (this size limit is somewhat
limited); and this is expected to be 'fixed' in the next major release.

Are you sure that you are adding abbreviations correctly? I know I sometimes
fouled up my abbreviations because the 'Edit Journal Abbreviations...' modal
dialog comes up with the first journal selected for editing. When you forget
this and start adding a new journal, you wipe out the old one. You should FIRST
click 'New Journal'.

BTW, I think this should also be altered in the next major release of EndNote.
Most of my use of this feature is for adding new abbreviations, not editing
existing ones. It would be better, IMHO, to have an empty (temp) entry selected
when choosing this feature from the Edit menu.

Additional styles should be available from the Endnote file server (I forget
the address).

Hope this helps
