A rather fine gotcha in EndNote is that the first name / last name swap does
not happen for the names of translators. So you must remember that the name of
the translator(s) is/are entered in regular First M. Last format. It's really
annoying to have to remember special cases for data of the same kind (names).
I hope Niles can rectify this someday.
I've seen a couple of colleagues enter maybe a couple of hundred references
the wrong way, and then have to suffer reversing their mistakes.

It's all true that EndNote is wonderfully easy to use--but I think its present
version could well have an errata sheet with a list of the things EndNote
can't do. I was just looking at the bibliography of a new book, and thinking
about how EndNote would not be able to produce its bibliography (the problem?
Titles of works mentioned WITHIN titles of books in the bibliography can't be,
say, italicized in the database, and then have italicization applied to the
whole title when formatted, with the internal title unitalicized).
