Oops...I should have mentioned this in my first message. Once you transfer
the library from a PC to a Mac, open EndNote Plus and hold down the SHIFT
key as you choose "Open" from the "File" menu. In the dialog, select and
open the PC library. This procedure is only necessary to open the library
the first time after it has been transferred to the Mac.
