We bought Endnotes 1.0/PC for a interdisciplinary projekt. People
is working with Word and with LaTeX.
Our goal is to export a BibTeX-Like file which will converted
by a UNIX Shell-Script to real BibTeX-Format and to work with
the included capabilities for Word.
A first trial with the Endnote Demonstratioin Package (sic!) was successfull
and we are VERY DISAPPOINTED by the problems we have with
Endnote 1.0/PC.
PROBLEM
1) We completely redifined the referece types to match the BibTeX
reference types (no problem).
It is not possible to define an Export-Style. After having
included more then two Reference Types in the export style the
error message
error : -108
appears when saving.
The error seem to be very severe because Endnotes goes sometimes
done with an error message indicating that a handle has been
overwritten (dangerous C programming style ?). Furthermore,
the internal window manager seems to be confused completely.
2) Endnotes 1.0 / PC has problems with installed TSR-Programms.
For example, Endnotes does not run when a telnet connection
to a Sun is open in the background.
QUESTIONS
1) What does error: -108 mean ?
2) Is there a list of error messages in clear text ? (no list is included
in the manual)
3) Are there any restrictions for the size of export styles ?
3) What are the reasons for this error and how can we fix the problem ?
4) When does a new release of Endnote appear ?
5) What is known about problems with TSR programs ?
6) Is there anybody using Endnotes with LaTeX/BibTeX ?
