I say using EndNote record numbers as filing numbers is not "reliable" as a
precautionary statement. The reason is that if a user decides to export the
library for one reason or another, and reimport it, the EndNote record
numbers will change. It is safer to rely on your own numbering system rather
than EndNote's internal system.
