A question for anyone who has had problems importing references:
I have several users here who have libraries made up from imported Medline
Datastar on-line searches. Unfortunately about a year ago we changed to
Endlink 1.16, which has major problems handling the author field from these
searches. As a result a lot of references are unusable for formatting papers.
Can anyone suggest a way of re-formatting the libraries to get the
author field back to the way it should be? At the moment instead of a string
of names we see the first author followed by a string of initials. We use
Endnote 1.2.1 on Macintosh, importing searches by ftp from a Vax mainframe.
THe only suggestion I have so far is to change the field manually, but with
1-2000 references to do this becomes a major job.
Thanks for any help,
