I just upgraded to both EndNote/Link 2.0 for the Mac and Microsoft Word
6.0. I am aware that EndNote does not work with Word 6.0 however I
decided to use Word 6.0 anyways since I am writing my dissertation and Word
6.0 has some features that I found to be very important.
Until EndNote 2.1 comes out which will work with Word 6.0, I am using
some circular steps to take care of references. Is anyone else in the
same situation as myself and do you have a better method?
My approach, run Word 6.0 and EndNote 2.0. I insert any references in my
dissertation as text format with {} brackets. When I am at the point I
need to generate my reference list, I switch over to Word 5.1 with the
EndNote plug in tool. I then convert the citations from text to "plug
in" citations and format the document. Any changes I need to make, I have
to go back to the Word 6.0 application and make from there. Then repeat
the process.
I can not take the Word 5.1 document and convert the "plug in" citations
back to text citations and then reload it into Word 6.0. Some of Word 6.0
features that I am using such as field codes and my table of contents do
not convert and become "static" in Word 5.1. Even little things like
footnotes do not convert cleanly from Word 6.0 to 5.1 and back.
Has anyone come up with any better work arounds that I am using? If do,
what are they?
Thanks.
